Indians of North America -- Government relations -- 1934-

The Royal Marks Papers contain correspondence, legal papers, printed matter, and holographic notes. Although the collection ranges from 1848 to 1983, the bulk of the papers concern Marks' career as an Indian rights attorney from 1946 to 1977. The papers have been divided into six series: Papago Tribe, Salt River Community, Hualapai and Havasupai Tribes, San Carlos Apache Tribe, Indians (general subjects), and Personal Papers.

This collection houses publications discussing a variety of issues in the context of Native American populations, including education, Western and traditional medicine, child abuse prevention, legal matters, alcoholism and drug abuse, and race relations.
