Without surrender, without consent : a history of the Nishga land claims / Daniel Raunet.
"Never invaded by armies and never ceded by formal treaty, the territory of the Nisga’a Nation has long been embroiled in a critical land claims dispute. This book offers an authoritative chronicle of the Nisga’a fight for justice and self-determination. From firsthand accounts of life before contact with European traders, to 1973, when the Supreme Court of Canada failed to rule decisively on the Nisga’a land title, yet acknowledged that their aboriginal claim had never been extinguished, this is a compelling and carefully researched analysis of Nisga’a-White relations." -- goodreads.com
