Recenzii

"I hope this book finds a place in every classroom and library in Washington State. The conflicts over Indian treaty rights produced a true warrior/statesman in the person of Billy Frank Jr., who endured personal tragedies and setbacks that would have destroyed most of us." Tom Keefe, former legislative director for Senator Warren Magnuson"This is the fascinating story of the life of my dear friend, Billy Frank, who is one of the first people I met from Indian Country. He is recognized nationally as an outstanding Indian leader. Billy is a warrior--and continues to fight for the preservation of the salmon." Senator Daniel K. Inouye“The primary contribution of Heffernan’s book is to make explicit connections to the larger American Indian rights movement and to update Frank’s life after the spotlight moved away from the Pacific Northwest salmon wars…The photographs and personal stories alone make it worth an interested reader’s time. Arriving as it does on the twentieth anniversary of Frank’s receipt of the Albert Schweitzer Award for Humanitarianism, it is appropriate that the book fetes Frank and recalls his achievements for another generation of students.” - Steven M. Fountain, Washington State University, on H-Environment
