Abstract
In 1875 the Pawnees were removed from the remains of their vast lands in Nebraska to a new reservation iI). Indian territory. Relying on historical sources as well as oral history accounts of Pawnee life, Blaine documents the mounting pressures on the tribe in the years between 1870 to 1875 that finally led to their expulsion from Nebraska. She carefully describes the change in the Pawnee way of life that resulted from government policies and pressures by surrounding settlers.
