In Order That Justice May Be Done is a thorough examination and history of the struggle experienced by the Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa to gain recognition as a tribe and to gain control of their homeland. The documented efforts of Chief Little Shell and Attorney Bottineau deserve to be understood by tribal members. The tremendous contribution Chief Little Shell made helped the Turtle Mountain tribe gain federal recognition and obtain a land base which resulted in the current 6 x 12 mile reservation for the tribe and individual allotments across western North Dakota and Montana.--Publisher.
