In Seeking Recognition, David R. M. Beck Examines The Termination And Eventual Restoration Of The Confederated Tribes At Coos, Lower Umpqua, And Siuslaw Some Thirty Years Later, In 1984. Within This Historical Context, The Termination And Restoration Of The Tribes Take On New Significance. These Actions Did Not Take Place In A Historical Vacuum But Were Directly Connected With The History Of The Tribe's Efforts To Gain U.s. Government Recognition From The Very Beginning Of Their Relations.
