Van Zandt argues that the pursuit of alliances was a widespread multiethnic quest that shaped the early colonial American world in fundamentally important ways. These alliances could produce surprising results, with Europeans sometimes subservient to more powerful Native American nations, even as native nations were sometimes clients and tributaries of European colonists. Spanning nine European colonies - including English, Dutch, and Swedish colonies - as well as many Native American nations and a community of transplanted Africans, Brothers among Nations enlists a broad array of sources to illuminate the degree to which European colonists were often among the most vulnerable people in North America and the centrality of Native Americans to the success of the European colonial project."--Jacket. 000455289 650_0 $$aIndians of North America$$xHistory$$yColonial period, ca. 1600-1775. 000455289 650_0 $$aIndians of North America$$xFirst contact with Europeans. 000455289 650_0 $$aIndians of North America$$xColonization. 000455289 651_0 $$aUnited States$$xEthnic relations. 000455289 651_0 $$aUnited States$$xHistory$$yColonial period, ca. 1600-1775. 000455289 85200 $$bgen$$hE77$$i.V25$$i2008 000455289 85641 $$3Table of contents only$$uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/toc/ecip087/2007051112.html 000455289 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:455289$$pGLOBAL_SET 000455289 980__ $$aBIB 000455289 980__ $$aBOOK
