The Indian slave trade was of central importance from the Carolina coast to the Mississippi Valley for nearly fifty years, linking southern lives and creating a whirlwind of violence and profit-making, argues Alan Gallay. He documents in vivid detail how the trade operated, the processes by which Europeans and Native Americans became participants, and the profound consequences for the South and its peoples. The author places Native Americans at the center of the story of European colonization and the evolution of plantation slavery in America. He explores the impact of such contemporary forces as the African slave trade, the unification of England and Scotland, and the competition among European empires as well as political and religious divisions in England and in South Carolina. Gallay also analyzes how Native American societies approached warfare, diplomacy, and decisions about allying and trading with Europeans. His wide-ranging research not only illuminates a crucial crossroad of European and Native American history but also establishes a new context for understanding racism, colonialism, and the meaning of ethnicity in early America.Slave tradeGreat BritainHistory17th centurySlave tradeSouthern StatesHistory17th centuryEnslaved IndiansSouthern StatesHistory17th centuryIndians, Treatment ofSouthern StatesHistory17th centuryIndians of North AmericaSouthern StatesSocial conditionsSlave tradeHistorySlave tradeHistoryEnslaved IndiansHistoryIndians, Treatment ofHistoryIndians of North AmericaSocial conditions.381/.44/0975Gallay Alan940003MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910777831403321The Indian slave trade3848696UNINA
