"Let Right Be Done is an invaluable collection of insightful essays on a crucial legal case that profoundly affected, and continues to influence, Canadian law. - J.R. (Jim) Miller, author, Reflections on Native-Newcomer Relations: Selected Essays. This important book reminds us of the courage and determination of the Nisga'a people. The late Frank Calder held an unwavering belief in justice and, with his accomplished counsel, Thomas Berger, Q.C., broke the trail for indigenous legal claims in Canada. Let Right Be Done is of acute interest to all who want to understand the contemporary recognition of Aboriginal title, specialist and general reader alike. - Honourable Judge Mary Ellen Turpel-Lafond, Representative for Children and Youth of British Columbia"
