Throughout the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries in eastern North America, Natives and newcomers alike understood the close relationship between political power and control of trade and land, but they did so in very different ways. For Native Americans, trade was a collective act. The alliances that made a people powerful became visible through material exchanges that forged connections among kin groups, villages, and the spirit world. The land itself was often conceived as a participant in these transactions through the blessings it bestowed on those who gave in return. For colonizers, by contrast, power tended to grow from the individual accumulation of goods and landed property more than from collective exchange-from domination more than from alliance. For many decades, an uneasy balance between the two systems of power prevailed. Tracing the messy process by which global empires and their colonial populations could finally abandon compromise and impose their definitions on the continent, Daniel K. Richter casts penetrating light on the nature of European colonization, the character of Native resistance, and the formative roles that each played in the origins of the United States. 606 $aIndians of North America$xFirst contact with Europeans 606 $aIndians of North America$xHistory$yColonial period, ca. 1600-1775 606 $aIndians, Treatment of$zNorth America$xHistory 606 $aIndians of North America$xGovernment relations 607 $aNorth America$xHistory$yColonial period, ca. 1600-1775 615 0$aIndians of North America$xFirst contact with Europeans. 615 0$aIndians of North America$xHistory 615 0$aIndians, Treatment of$xHistory. 615 0$aIndians of North America$xGovernment relations. 676 $a973.2 700 $aRichter$b Daniel K$0233058 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910808534703321 996 $aTrade, land, power$94060879 997 $aUNINA
