""[This is] one of the smarter books I've read on Native American religion. I will reserve a space for it next to Brown's Who Owns Native Culture? Like that book, this one refuses to 'seal off [anyone's] claims from analysis,' including those of Native Americans seeking to negotiate within/across a hegemonic situation. This book is refreshing and bold and succeeds because of the author's superb and steady intelligence and analytical rigor." -- Joel MartinUniversity of Massachusetts, author of The Land Looks after Us: A History of Native American Religion
