Illicit Love is a history of love, sex, and marriage between
Indigenous peoples and settler citizens at the heart of two settler
colonial nations, the United States and Australia. Award-winning
historian Ann McGrath illuminates interracial relationships from
the late eighteenth to the early twentieth century through stories
of romance, courtship, and marriage between Indigenous peoples and
colonizers in times of nation formation. Illicit Love reveals how
marriage itself was used by disparate parties for both empowerment
and disempowerment and how it came to embody the contradictions of
imperialism. A tour de force of settler colonial history, McGrath's
study demonstrates vividly how interracial relationships between
Indigenous and colonizing peoples were more frequent and
threatening to nation-states in the Atlantic and the Pacific worlds
than historians have previously acknowledged.
