In light of a new book about the Connecticut tribe, Representative Sam Gejdenson (D Conn) defended his role in helping obtain federal recognition for the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation. His office is currently reviewing Without Reservation, a book which chronicles the author's view of the history of the Pequot tribe since the 1970s. The book's publisher, Harper Collins, did not make copies available to the press before it was released last week. The company will not provide any review copies, noting the "controversial nature" of the book. No tour is planned for the book, which has risen in sales on Amazon.Com.
