When it adopted a new constitution in 1969, the Seminole Nation was the first of the Five Tribes in Oklahoma to formally reorganize its government. In the face of an American legal system that sought either to destroy its nationhood or to impede its self-government, the Seminole Nation tenaciously retained its internal autonomy, cultural vitality, and economic subsistence. Here, L. Susan Work draws on her experience as a tribal attorney to present the first legal history of the twentieth-century Seminole Nation.Work traces the Seminoles' story from their removal to Indian Territory from Florida in the late nineteenth century to the new challenges of the twenty-first century. She also places the history of the Seminole Nation within the context of general Indian law and policy, thereby revealing common threads in the legal struggles and achievements of the Five Tribes, including their evolving relationships with both federal and state governments.As Work amply demonstrates, the history of the Seminole Nation is one of survival and rebirth. It is a dramatic story of an Indian nation overcoming formidable obstacles to move forward into the twenty-first century as a thriving sovereign nation.

In this booklet I present the details and context of a gold bracelet collected from the British Columbia coastal area probably in the 1870s by George Mercer Dawson, Canadian geologist and ethnographer. This booklet is intended to assist those who wish to determine the artist, when it was crafted, and the value.To be clear, I have done this research using published resources; I have not visited museums per se.I have focused on a particular gold bracelet collected by George M. Dawson (1849-1901). In 1878 he surveyed the Queen Charlotte Islands, (Haida Gwaii) British Columbia, for the Geological Survey of Canada. His mission was to conduct a topographical, geological and resource survey, which he reported on. He was interested in the ethnographic study of the "vanishing" Native community, culture and language, and published important works in this area. I have compared the "GMD" bracelet to works crafted by northwest coast artists of the time Charles Edenshaw (c. 1839-1920), Duncan Ginaawaan (c. 1830-1876), and "unknown" persons. This bracelet seems to have only traditional Native motifs, with no obvious Euro-colonial design. It may have been made for use within the Native community.
