After King Philip’s War
ISBN: 9780874518191 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 278 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The 1676 killing of Metacomet, the tribal leader dubbed "King Philip" by colonists, is commonly seen as a watershed event, marking the end of a bloody war, dissolution of Indian society in New England, and even the disappearance of Native peoples from the region. This collection challenges that assumption, showing that Indians adapted and survived, existing quietly on the fringes of Yankee society, less visible than before but nonetheless retaining a distinct identity and heritage. While confinement on tiny reservations, subjection to increasing state regulation, enforced abandonment of...

Germans and Indians: Fantasies, Encounters, Projections
ISBN: 9780803264205 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 351 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. For over three hundred years, the Indian peoples of North America have attracted the interest of diverse segments of German society missionaries, writers, playwrights, anthropologists, filmmakers, hobbyists and enthusiasts, and even royalty. Today, German scholars continue to be drawn to Indians, as is the German public: tour groups from Germany frequent Plains reservations in the summer, and so-called Indianerclubs, where participants dress up in "authentic" Indian costume, are common. In this fascinating volume, scholars and writers illuminate the longstanding connection between Germans and...

The Victory with No Name: The Native American Defeat of the First American Army
ISBN: 9780190614454 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In 1791, General Arthur St. Clair led the United States army in a campaign to destroy a complex of Indian villages at the Maumee River in northwestern Ohio. Almost within reach of their objective, St. Clair's 1,400 men were attacked by about one thousand Indians. The U.S. force was decimated, suffering nearly one thousand casualties in killed and wounded, while Indian casualties numbered only a few dozen. But despite the lopsided result, it wouldn't appear to carry much significance; it involved only a few thousand people, lasted less than three hours, and the outcome, which was never in...

Ledger Narratives, 6: The Plains Indian Drawings in the Mark Lansburgh Collection at Dartmouth College
ISBN: 9780806142982 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The largest known collection of ledger art ever acquired by one individual is Mark Lansburgh s diverse assemblage of more than 140 drawings, now held by the Hood Museum of Art at Dartmouth College and catalogued in this important book. The Cheyennes, Crows, Kiowas, Lakotas, and other Plains peoples created the genre known as ledger art in the mid-nineteenth century. Before that time, these Indians had chronicled the heroic achievements of their warriors and chiefs on rock, buffalo robes, and tipi covers. As they came into increasing contact with American traders, the artists recorded their...

The Western Abenakis of Vermont, 1600-1800, 197: War, Migration, and the Survival of an Indian People
ISBN: 9780806125688 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 372 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Before European incursions began in the seventeenth century, the Western Abenaki Indians inhabited present-day Vermont and New Hampshire, particularly the Lake Champlain and Connecticut River valleys. This history of their coexistence and conflicts with whites on the northern New England frontier documents their survival as a people-recently at issue in the courts-and their wars and migrations, as far north as Quebec, during the first two centuries of white contacts. Written clearly and authoritatively, with sympathy for this long-neglected tribe, Colin G. Calloway's account of the...

The Scratch of a Pen: 1763 and the Transformation of North America
ISBN: 9780195331271 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this superb volume in Oxford's acclaimed Pivotal Moments series, Colin Calloway reveals how the Treaty of Paris of 1763 had a profound effect on American history, setting in motion a cascade of unexpected consequences, as Indians and Europeans, settlers and frontiersmen, all struggled to adapt to new boundaries, new alignments, and new relationships. Britain now possessed a vast American empire stretching from Canada to the Florida Keys, yet the crushing costs of maintaining it would push its colonies toward rebellion. White settlers, free to pour into the West, clashed as never before...

New Worlds for All: Indians, Europeans, and the Remaking of Early America
ISBN: 9781421410319 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Although many Americans consider the establishment of the colonies as the birth of this country, in fact early America existed long before the arrival of the Europeans. From coast to coast, Native Americans had created enduring cultures, and the subsequent European invasion remade much of the land and society. In New Worlds for All, Colin G. Calloway explores the unique and vibrant new cultures that Indians and Europeans forged together in early America. The journey toward this hybrid society kept Europeans' and Indians' lives tightly entwined: living, working, worshiping,...

Pen and Ink Witchcraft: Treaties and Treaty Making in American Indian History
ISBN: 9780190206512 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Indian peoples made some four hundred treaties with the United States between the American Revolution and 1871, when Congress prohibited them. They signed nine treaties with the Confederacy, as well as countless others over the centuries with Spain, France, Britain, Mexico, the Republic of Texas, Canada, and even Russia, not to mention individual colonies and states. In retrospect, the treaties seem like well-ordered steps on the path of dispossession and empire. The reality was far more complicated. In Pen and Ink Witchcraft, eminent Native American historian Colin G. Calloway...

White People, Indians, and Highlanders: Tribal People and Colonial Encounters in Scotland and America
ISBN: 9780199737826 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In nineteenth century paintings, the proud Indian warrior and the Scottish Highland chief appear in similar ways--colorful and wild, righteous and warlike, the last of their kind. Earlier accounts depict both as barbarians, lacking in culture and in need of civilization. By the nineteenth century, intermarriage and cultural contact between the two--described during the Seven Years' War as cousins--was such that Cree, Mohawk, Cherokee, and Salish were often spoken with Gaelic accents. In this imaginative work of imperial and tribal history, Colin Calloway examines why these two seemingly...
