Chief Seattle gave his now famous speech in 1854 during treaty negotiations with the U.S. government, which was intent on forcing the Native people of Washington's Puget Sound onto reservations. This book put's Chief Seattle's life into the context of his time and gives a brief history of the region and its many tribes, with particular emphasis on Chief Seattle's tribe, the Suquamish.
