{"product_id":"covered-with-night-nicole-eustace-9781631495878","title":"Covered with Night: A Story of Murder and Indigenous Justice in Early America","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn the winter of 1722, on the eve of a major conference between the Five Nations of the Haudenosaunee (also known as the Iroquois) and Anglo-American colonists, a pair of colonial fur traders brutally assaulted a Seneca hunter near Conestoga, Pennsylvania. Though virtually forgotten today, the crime ignited a contest between Native American forms of justice--rooted in community, forgiveness, and reparations--and the colonial ideology of harsh reprisal that called for the accused killers to be executed if found guilty. In \u003cem\u003eCovered with Night\u003c\/em\u003e, historian Nicole Eustace reconstructs the attack and its aftermath, introducing a group of unforgettable individuals--from the slain man's resilient widow to an Indigenous diplomat known as \"Captain Civility\" to the scheming governor of Pennsylvania--as she narrates a remarkable series of criminal investigations and cross-cultural negotiations. Taking its title from a Haudenosaunee metaphor for mourning, \u003cem\u003eCovered with Night\u003c\/em\u003e ultimately urges us to consider Indigenous approaches to grief and condolence, rupture and repair, as we seek new avenues of justice in our own era.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nicole Eustace\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1631495879\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781631495878\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Liveright Publishing Corporation\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/27\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 464\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.50h x 6.50w x 1.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e National Book Awards - Finalist\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Pulitzer Prize - Winner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal Prepub Alert\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2020 pg. 68\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/22\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2021 pg. 95\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/15\/2021","brand":"Nicole Eustace","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44133558649087,"sku":"9781631495878","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_10c2154b-7968-4a09-b0b2-7cb254dd9ae8.jpg?v=1687486846","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/covered-with-night-nicole-eustace-9781631495878","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
