Excellent overview of what the indigenous people of North America have undergone in their negotiations and treaties with the white settlers. Thomas King uses humour to tell the story. It's a shocking tale and covers so many ‘crimes' that have occurred under the various governments, from the seventeenth century to present day. A worthwhile read for anyone wanting to understand why the native people of North America are still fighting for their rights and the land that is owing to them.
