" It is unusual to find a history of a tribe that provides an evenhanded account of the relations between the Indian people and the United States federal government. Veronica Tiller' s history of the Jicarilla Apaches is such a book. It lives up to the expectations for a good history, as well as to the promise of what an Indian author can do with the history of her own tribe." -- Western Historical Quarterly
