### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Interesting and thought provoking
  

*by C***S on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 21 February 2022*

I am enjoying reading the hard back version. Some interesting chapters recounting some lesser known land disputes and historical background

### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Satisfactory
  

*by N***S on Reviewed in Canada on 20 October 2021*

This is a series of monographs on land, most quite interesting, but without an over-arching theme or thesis, except perhaps that concentration of land ownership is bad and that native peoples have been wronged. And this is fine as far as it goes. One chapter on land trusts, reviewing various models at a high level, was frustratingly parsimonious about how the arrangements actually worked, and the nomenclature was confusing. The description of how a land trust has elevated Cleveland was particularly lacunate. But I can't understand how the author effusively thanks his Harper Collins editors. I found a shocking incidence of sentence fragments, clumsy or ungrammatical constructions, and typographical errors. This was quite astonishing for an established publishing house. It may reflect an overall lack of unifying, scholarly rigour. But as stated, most of the chapters were quite interesting in themselves and worth reading.
