"The New Buffalo is a groundbreaking study. In a field of
historical literature on Aboriginal education that is dominated by
studies of elementary and secondary schooling, Stonechild's book
offers a valuable perspective on lifelong education in relation to
treaty rights, cultural empowerment, jurisdictional difficulties,
institutional developments, and individual experiences."--Betsey
Baldwin "H-Canada, H-Net Book Reviews"
"The New Buffalo is a wise book that merits a large
audience."--Jean Barman "American Review of Canadian Studies"
