| Contents Notes | Introduction -- Tribe on trial -- A tribe for other purposes -- The god of the English was offended ... -- From Indian district to Indian town -- Adjusting to change -- The legacy of the trial. "This is a reconstruction of the trial where the Mashpee Indians claimed ownership of the area of Cape Cod that they have occupied for 350 years. Their claim was rejected as they were judged not to be a true tribe, having not survived as an ethnic identity."--Amazon.com. |
