博客來Indian Slavery in Colonial Times Within the Present Limits of the United States is a detailed historical study by Almon Wheeler Lauber that examines the often-overlooked system of Indigenous enslavement practiced in North America during the colonial era. First published in the early twentieth century, this scholarly work provides a comprehensive analysis of how Native American slavery developed and functioned under European colonization.
Lauber documents the legal structures, economic motivations, and regional variations of Indigenous slavery across the colonies, drawing on extensive historical records and primary sources. The book explores the impact of warfare, trade, and colonial policy on Native communities and highlights the long-lasting consequences of forced labor, displacement, and cultural disruption.
Essential for historians, students, and readers interested in colonial history and Native American studies, this volume offers critical insight into a neglected chapter of American history. It remains a valuable public domain resource for understanding the complexities of slavery beyond the transatlantic system.
