North America took its political shape in the crisis of the 1860s,
marked by Canadian Confederation, the U.S. Civil War, the
restoration of the Mexican Republic, and numerous wars and treaty
regimes conducted between these states and indigenous peoples. This
crisis wove together the three nation-states of modern North
America from a patchwork of contested polities. Remaking North
American Sovereignty brings together distinguished experts on the
histories of Canada, indigenous peoples, Mexico, and the United
States to re-evaluate this era of political transformation in light
of the global turn in nineteenth-century historiography. They
uncover the continental dimensions of the 1860s crisis that have
been obscured by historical traditions that confine these conflicts
within its national framework.
