Drawing on meticulous archival research and a close working relationship with the Menominee Historic Preservation Department, David R. M. Beck picks up where his earlier work, Siege and Survival: History of the Menominee Indians, 16341856, ended. The Struggle for SelfDetermination begins with the establishment of a small reservation in the Menominee homeland in northeastern Wisconsin at a time when the Menominee economic, political, and social structure came under aggressive assault. For the next hundred years the tribe attempted to regain control of its destiny, enduring successive policy attacks by governmental, religious, and local business sources.The Menominees rich forests became a battleground on which they refused to cede control to the U.S. government. The struggle climaxed in the midtwentieth century when the federal government terminated its relationship with the tribe. Throughout this time the Menominee fought to maintain their connection to their past and to regain control of their future. The lessons they learned helped them through their greatest modern disasterterminationand enabled them to reconstruct a government and a reservation as the twentieth century drew to a close. The Struggle for SelfDetermination reinterprets that story and includes the viewpoint of the Menominee in the telling of it.
