Native American Higher Education in the United States examines the history and development of higher education for Native Americans, tracing its evolution from the Colonial and Federal periods through the era of self-determination and into the late twentieth century. Cary Michael Carney explores the changing relationship between Native peoples, educational institutions, and government policies, and includes a comparison with Black higher education as well as a discussion of the contemporary status of Native American higher education. With extensive references, appendices, and an index, this is a substantial historical and scholarly work of interest to collectors and readers of Native American history.
