Abstract
This source is an extensive study of the nature of the relationship between the United States government and the Jicarilla Apache tribe of New Mexico from 1846 to 1970. The author, an indigenous trained historian, first presents a brief cultural summary of the Jicarilla as they existed in 1846. The focus shifts to how Federal government policies have affected the economic, social, and political history of the Jicarilla, and on the role played by the Jicarilla in determining the outcome of these policies and, inevitably, their own destiny.
