(AFT), ISBN 0759107092, ISBN-13 9780759107090, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Curator and author Quintana and Clemmer (anthropology, U. of Denver) describe the experiences of the Southern Ute nation from 1877 to the present, beginning with their forcible relocation and the allotment and distribution of resources of their lands. From 1877 to about 1926, the Southern Ute nation suffered privation and great loss of life on the reservation, as the result of failures in promised services such as delivering rations. From that time up to about twenty years ago, it was difficult to believe the nation would recover. However, recent changes have led to some measure of security for the Southern Ute, and they await word on their legal action charging misappropriation of billions of dollars in tribal funds by the federal government. Quintana and Clemmer offer a well-researched examination of what appears to be a conscious attempt to starve, sicken, and swindle a nation of people to the brink of decimation.
