Weaver illuminates their willing and unwilling travels through the region, revealing how they changed the course of world history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIndigenous Americans, Weaver shows, crossed the Atlantic as royal dignitaries, diplomats, slaves, laborers, soldiers, performers, and tourists. And they carried resources and knowledge that shaped world civilization -- from chocolate, tobacco, and potatoes to terrace farming and suspension bridges. Weaver makes clear that indigenous travelers were cosmopolitan agents of international change whose engagement with other societies gave them the tools to advocate for their own sovereignty even as it was challenged by colonialism.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eJace Weaver is the Franklin Professor of Native American Studies at the University of Georgia and author of \u003ci\u003eNotes from a Miner's Canary: Essays on the State of Native America\u003c\/i\u003e, among other books.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 356\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.08 x 9.25 x 6.25 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 01, 2017\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51343540617439,"sku":"9781469633381","price":60.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0771\/4894\/6655\/files\/83buVGU1aH9781469633381.webp?v=1788742630","url":"https:\/\/georbella.com\/products\/the-red-atlantic-american-indigenes-and-the-making-of-the-modern-world-1000-1927-paperback","provider":"Georbella","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
