Robert M. Owens; Indigenous Prosperity and American Conquest: Indian Women of the Ohio River Valley, 1690–1792. Ethnohistory 1 April 2019; 66 (2): 387–388
Abstract
Scholars have long chronicled and analyzed the contest for the Ohio Valley and the dispossession of its Native peoples. Susan Sleeper-Smith is the first to provide an in-depth examination of Indian women and how directly their indigenous economy played into the conquest. Sleeper-Smith uses the 1791 raid of Kentucky militia general Charles Scott as a framing device for the book.
