A landmark history--the sweeping story of the enslavement of tens of thousands of Indians across America, from the time of the conquistadors up to the early twentieth century.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSince the time of Columbus, Indian slavery was illegal in much of the American continent. Yet, as Andr駸 Res駭dez illuminates in his myth-shattering \u003cem\u003eThe Other Slavery\u003c\/em\u003e, it was practiced for centuries as an open secret. There was no abolitionist movement to protect the tens of thousands of Natives who were kidnapped and enslaved by the conquistadors. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRes駭dez builds the incisive case that it was mass slavery--more than epidemics--that decimated Indian populations across North America. Through riveting new evidence, including testimonies of courageous priests, rapacious merchants, and Indian captives, \u003cem\u003eThe Other Slavery\u003c\/em\u003e reveals nothing less than a key missing piece of American history. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor over two centuries we have fought over, abolished, and tried to come to grips with African American slavery. It is time for the West to confront an entirely separate, equally devastating enslavement we have long failed truly to see. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"\u003cem\u003eThe Other Slavery\u003c\/em\u003e is nothing short of an epic recalibration of American history, one that's long overdue...In addition to his skills as a historian and an investigator, R駸endez is a skilled storyteller with a truly remarkable subject. This is historical nonfiction at its most important and most necessary.\" -- \u003cem\u003eLiterary Hub\u003c\/em\u003e, 20 Best Works of Nonfiction of the Decade \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"\"One of the most profound contributions to North American history.\"--\u003cem\u003eLos Angeles Times\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Andr駸 Res駭dez\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 054494710X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780544947108\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Mariner Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/18\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 448\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.90h x 5.20w x 1.30d","brand":"Andr駸 Res駭dez","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44055290708223,"sku":"9780544947108","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a2721302-a2ee-4428-9aff-83d3da568572.jpg?v=1685034820","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-other-slavery-andrs-resndez-9780544947108","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
