"The Force of Family explains the intimate tie between Haida repatriation and kinship in its associated forms of memory, history, and respect. This is a book that gives the reader a real understanding of Haida concerns and approaches when it comes to repatriation." -- Larry J. Zimmerman, Professor of Anthropology and Museum Studies, Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis "A readable and nuanced discussion of Haida culture and the changes it has experienced during the 'repatriation era.'" -- Robert K. Paterson, Professor of Law, University of British Columbia "There is no doubt that this book is an important contribution to our understanding of Haida communities and the impact of repatriation on their understandings of themselves, as well as what our understanding of repatriation following the Haida should be." -- Joshua A. Bell, Curator of Globalization in the Department of Anthropology at the National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution

‘This work is beautifully crafted contribution to repatriation and
critical heritage studies… Highly recommended.’
*Choice Magazine vol 52:04:2014*
‘This sensitively written and insightful ethnography takes
repatriation out of the control of museums and places it in a
specific community as it tries to repair the damage inflicted by
over a century of social and cultural trauma.’
*BC Studies Issue 197*
