Much has been written about the forging of a British identity in
the 17th and 18th centuries, from the multiple kingdoms of England,
Scotland and Ireland. But the process also ran across the Irish sea
and was played out in North America and the Caribbean. In the
process, the indigenous peoples of North America, the Caribbean,
the Cape, Australia and New Zealand were forced to redefine their
identities. This text integrates the history of these areas with
British and imperial history. With contributions from both sides of
the Atlantic, each chapter deals with a different aspect of British
encounters with indigenous peoples in Colonial America and
includes, for example, sections on "Native Americans and Early
Modern Concepts of Race" and "Hunting and the Politics of
Masculinity in Cherokee treaty-making, 1763-1775". This book should
be of particular interest to postgraduate students of Colonial
American history and early modern British history.
