Title: The Native Ground Author: Kathleen DuVal Narrator: Daniel Adam Day Format: mp3 Length: 11 hrs and 35 mins Release date: 10-17-18 Ratings: 4.5 out of 5 stars, 17 ratings Genres: Colonial Period Publisher's Summary: Author Kathleen DuVal argues that it was Indians rather than European would-be colonizers who were more often able to determine the form and content of the relations between the two groups. Along the banks of the Arkansas and Mississippi rivers, far from Paris, Madrid, and London, European colonialism met neither accommodation nor resistance but incorporation. Placing Indians at the center of the story, DuVal shows both their diversity and our contemporary tendency to exaggerate the influence of Europeans in places far from their centers of power.
