Book Review

Saving the Reservation: Joe Garry and the Battle to Be Indian. By John Fahey. (Seattle: University of Washington Press, 2001. xii, 220 pp. $26.95, ISBN 0-295-98153-9.)

The tangled, complex history of the relationship between the United States government and Native American peoples in the twentieth century is still understudied and often misunderstood. Any publication that increases our grasp of any significant aspect of that history is welcome. John Fahey's account of the career of the Coeur d'Alene leader Joe Garry, who was an important figure in the National Congress of American Indians (NCAI) in the 1950s and 1960s, provides us with useful information and insights about the activities of the NCAI, perhaps the most important national-level Indian organization during those decades, and about the local level struggle between Garry's community and the government, which led him onto the national scene.
