Indian Women and French Men

SUSAN SLEEPER-SMITH is assistant professor of history at Michigan State University and coeditor of New Faces of the Fur Trade: Selected Papers of the Seventh North American Fur Trade Conference.

This is groundbreaking work - a major contribution to the history of both Native Americans and women in this region. The book will become required reading for any course that focuses on the role of mixed bloods or Native Americans in the western Great Lakes and Mississippi. - R. David Edmunds, coauthor of The Fox Wars: The Mesquakie Challenge to New France
