Reviews

“The collection helps expand our understanding of Atlantic history by placing significant moments in the history of the Pueblos, Haudenosaunee, Native Southerners, and Native peoples of southern New England alongside other revolutions in European political thought, imperial governance, and Atlantic slavery. Each of the chapters provides a concise overview of major events and processes that will help anyone trying to gain a comprehensive understanding of an astoundingly complex field.”—James L. Hill, author of Creek Internationalism in an Age of Revolution, 1763–1818 “These chapters do a very good job using traditional historical narratives to critique linear progress. . . . Using upheaval as a means to critique development, progress, and linearity reveals the many opportunities for non-white or even traditionally marginalized white actors to play the important historic roles they did.”—Patrick Bottiger, author of The Borderland of Fear: Vincennes, Prophetstown, and the Invasion of the Miami Homeland
