Chapter 2
1.  Why do you think the locals didn’t stick together and form their own large scale company to compete with the incoming large companies?

2.  Once fish numbers started to decrease, why wasn’t any action taking to preserve the fishery, such as homewaters, by state or federal governments?

3.  Why didn’t federal policy support any other economic ventures other than agriculture?

4.  Was there any way for Indians to profit off of this fishery rather than be pushed around by the big companies and remain in poverty?

Chapter 4
1.  Why could the Indians not benefit more from the tourism in the region?

2.  Why were the Native American allotments only set aside for ten years, where after those ten years they became saleable again and almost all the land was brought by non-Indians?

3.  Did tourism bring the local economy down even more for the long-time residents or did it bring opportunity to some?

4.  In the present day, is tourism more effective in the winter months of the year?
