"Fine-Dare presents a sensitive review of the American Indian repatriation movement and its legal basis in the federal Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA)... Strange as it may seem, some archaeologists still maintain that NAGPRA is a political move that threatens science. Therefore, Fine-Dare's book is required reading for students of anthropology at all levels."-Choice CHOICE "This work is a detailed, frank, and though-provoking look at the development and implementation of NAGPRA. It is extensively researched and illustrated with numerous well placed examples from Native American experience... Despite its difficult, disturbing subject matter, this book is compelling reading. It is an excellent review of the cultural context of NAGPRA... A valuable resource for individuals and organizations faced with the daunting, emotionally charged task of repatriation officers, museum curators, cultural leaders, anthroplogists, and legislators alike."-Amy Steffian, Alaska History -- Amy Steffian Alaska History "Grave Injustice is a fine book that provides the reader with an understanding of the need for NAGPRA, the history of its passage and implementation to date, and the differing perceptions that people have of the law."-Sharon O'Brien, Western Historical Quarterly -- Sharon O'Brien Western Historical Quarterly
