| Abstract | During the late 1800's in Washburn County, Wisconsin, a chief of the Ojibwe tribe was confronted by a game warden and a local officer for violation of hunting and fishing limitations set by Wisconsin law. Chief Joe White was killed. This book relays an in-depth study of the confrontation, the outcome and a history of how Joe White and Indian peoples tried to assert their sovereignty. |
