"A substantial contribution to the extant scholarship in the field of comparative colonial study through the contexts of Ireland and Native North America."—Katie Kane, Great Plains Quarterly "This thoroughly researched and captivating comparison provides new insights into the educational projects of both the BIA and the CNEI, and complicates existing arguments about those longstanding educational initiatives.
