"Covers: Land Claims Struggle, ANCSA Legislation, ANCSA Implementation, Land Selections, 7(i) Settlement, Subsistence, 1991 Issues, Corporate Control, Stock Alienation, Land Protection, New Natives, Elders, and Education. Evaluation: Relatively detailed coverage of topics. Material is clear, readable, well organized, indexed, and illustrated with black and white pictures. Unfortunately it is dated. Comments: In writing this book, two experienced Washington journalists explore the historical, political, and economic forces behind land and resource ownership and development in Alaska. Although it is now dated, the book presents a readable and interesting analysis of Alaskan history and politics. The chapter entitled 'The Greening of the Natives' is an overview of ANCSA. This book is recommended as background information, especially for anyone new to Alaska."1
