The Forced Removal of American Indians from the Northeast: A History of Territorial Cessions and Relocations, 1620-1854
ISBN: 9780786464968 / Angielski / Miękka / 223 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Between the settlement of Jamestown in 1607 and the Trail of Tears in the 1830s, millions of Indians were forced to cede land to European settlers and move westward. Relying on the words of those involved, this study explores the relocation of those Indians living east of the Mississippi River and north of the Ohio River and their transfer of 412,000 square miles of land. It examines presidential policies, the cultural and community splits within the "Five Civilized Nations" (Creek, Cherokee, Choctaw, Chickasaw and Seminole) and the various ways in which Indians attempted to maintain their...

Sacajawea's People: The Lemhi Shoshones and the Salmon River Country
ISBN: 9780803238190 / Angielski / Miękka / 258 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. On October 20, 2001, a crowd gathered just east of Salmon, Idaho, to dedicate the site of the Sacajawea Interpretive, Cultural, and Education Center, in preparation for the Lewis and Clark Bicentennial. In a bitter instance of irony, the American Indian peoples conducting the ceremony dedicating the land to the tribe, the city of Salmon, and the nation-the Lemhi Shoshones, Sacajawea's own people-had been removed from their homeland nearly a hundred years earlier and had yet to regain official federal recognition as a tribe. John W. W. Mann's book at long last tells the remarkable and...

The Hunter-Gatherer Use of Caves and Rockshelters in the American Midsouth: A geoarchaeological and spatial analysis of archaeological features at Dus
ISBN: 9781407306704 / Angielski / Miękka / 101 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This study investigates the form, function, and organization of features at the Late Paleoindian through Middle Archaic site of Dust Cave, Alabama (US), using a multidisciplinary approach combining macromorphological, micromorphological, and chemical analyses. Previous studies have relied on observations made at the macroscopic level using morphological and/or content attributes, severely masking the diversity of activities they represent. A more robust method conceptualizes features as sedimentary deposits and reconstructs their depositional history as a means of identifying feature...

Reborn in America: French Exiles and Refugees in the United States and the Vine and Olive Adventure, 1815-1865
ISBN: 9780817317232 / Angielski / Twarda / 584 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The history of the Vine and Olive Colony in Demopolis, Alabama, has long been clouded by romantic myths. The notion that it was a doomed attempt by Napoleonic exiles in America to plant a wine- and olive-growing community in Alabama based on the ideals of the French Revolution, has long been bolstered by the images that have been proliferated in the popular imagination of French ladies (in Josephine-style gowns) and gentlemen (in officer s full dress uniforms) lounging in the breeze on the bluffs overlooking the Tombigbee River while sturdy French peasants plowed the rich soil of the Black...

Texas at Sea
ISBN: 9780875654201 / Angielski / Twarda / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Perhaps your average fourth grader can recite the pivotal stories of Texas' fight for independence on land--we all remember the Alamo, of course--but how many of us can recall battles waged over the sea? In "Texas at Sea," the latest in TCU Press' popular Texas Small Books series, Mark Lardas illuminates a little known dimension of Texas history. All too often, we "forget that the history of the United States is a story told from the sea," Gene Smith, director of The Center for Texas Studies, observed, and Texas is no exception. "When people think of Texas they think of cattle, cotton, and...
