Comprised of eleven original essays, \u003cem\u003eThe Boundaries between Us\u003c\/em\u003e presents unique perspectives on the history and significance of the contest for control of the Old Northwest territory.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe essays examine the sociocultural contexts in which natives and newcomers lived, traded, negotiated, interacted, and fought, asking new questions about power, identity, and violence, both ahead of and behind the frontiers of Euro-American settlement. The essays do not attempt to present a unified interpretation but, rather, focus on both specific and general topics, revisit and reinterpret well-known events, and underscore how cultural, political, and ideological antagonisms divided the native inhabitants from the newcomers. Together, these thoughtful analyses offer a broad historical perspective on nearly a century of contact, interaction, conflict, and displacement. This volume promises to be of great importance to students and scholars of early America, the frontier, and cultural interaction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Daniel Barr\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1606351095\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781606351093\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Kent State University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/12\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 261\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.00w x 0.80d","brand":"Daniel Barr","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48445419651327,"sku":"9781606351093","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_59e22c20-dcad-4f2b-92b8-5bde40bf06e7.jpg?v=1777218472","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-boundaries-between-us-daniel-barr-9781606351093","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
