Abstract

World War II left thousands of lives over much of the world fundamentally changed. Thus, it is not too surprising to find that Native Americans were also profoundly touched by the war and its aftermath. Alison R. Bernstein develops and proves this theme in her well written book that fills the void between the several studies of the Indian New Deal and recent works considering the termination movement of the 1950s.
