Long before lucrative tribal casinos sparked controversy, Native
Americans amassed other wealth that provoked intense debate about
the desirability, morality, and compatibility of Indian and
non-Indian economic practices. Blending social, cultural, and
economic history, Alexandra Harmon examines seven such instances of
Indian affluence and the dilemmas they presented both for Native
Americans and for Euro-Americans--dilemmas rooted in the colonial
origins of the modern American economy. Harmon's study not only
compels us to look beyond stereotypes of greedy whites and poor
Indians, but also convincingly demonstrates that Indians deserve a
prominent place in American economic history and in the history of
American ideas through the twentieth century.
