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.
Martin Daunton was formerly the Astor Professor of British History at University College London, before moving to the chair of economic history at Cambridge in 1997. He is the author of Progress and poverty: an economic and social history of Britain, 1700—1850, and is currently completing a book on the politics of British taxation from 1815 to the present. Rick Halpern is Reader in the History of the United States. His most recent publication is Down on the killing floor: Black and white workers in Chicago's packinghouses, 1904—1954. He is currently working on a comparative study of race and labour in the sugar industries of the United States and South Africa.
