Traditional histories of North and South America often leave the
impression that Native American peoples had little impact on the
colonies and empires established by Europeans after 1492. This
groundbreaking study, which spans more than 300 years, demonstrates
the agency of indigenous peoples in forging their own history and
that of the Western Hemisphere. By putting the story of the
indigenous peoples and their encounters with Europeans at the
center, a new history of the "New World" emerges in which the
Native Americans become vibrant and vitally important components of
the British, French, Spanish, and Portuguese empires. In fact,
their presence was the single most important factor in the
development of the colonial world. By discussing the "great
encounter" of peoples and cultures, this book provides a valuable,
new perspective on the history of the Americas.
