- Summary:
- This companion volume to the acclaimed American Encounters brings together the most significant recently published scholarship on Native American history. Arranged chronologically and thematically, this volume is an innovative review of American Indian agency, gender, religion, culture, politics, activism, and historiography. "Encounters" between Indians and non-Indians lie at the heart of American Nations, replacing the narrative of conquest and decline with stories of people who negotiate, adjust, debate, and resist.
- This stellar collection re-examines the Native American past to offer a version of American history, which is richer and more complex.
