"Provides a fresh perspective in analyzing Native American/Europeanconflicts from the sixteenth century to the close of the French and Indian Warin 1763....A valuable and original view of a cultural and military conflict thathas been so instrumental in shaping our national character."--Booklist, "Warpaths is a considerable achievement. Scholars can admire its breadth of approach and its deft and unsentimental synthesis of a mass of specialized studies; teachers will value its clarity of presentation and its capacity to introduce students to a complex and grimly realistic multiculturalworld."--Richard R. Johnson, University of Washington, "Excellent overview! Very well written and with a clear perspective."--William Gilmore-Lehne, Richard Stockton College, "I really like this book. I am going to adopt it for my Colonial America course. A novel and useful approach."--Elsa Nystrom, Kennesaw State College, "Very impressive. Gives students a flavor for the 16th and 17th centries."--Everett Kindig, Midwestern State University, "[P]rovides a good introduction to both European and Native American warfare, and...clearly shows how various groups of colonists and Indians influenced each other's conduct of war, whether as allies or foes."--New York History, "Warpaths is a considerable achievement.

Synopsis
In 1513, only a few years before Cortes conquered the Aztec empire, Juan Ponce de Leon and three shiploads of conquistadores landed just south of what is now St. Augustine, Florida. The Spanish adventurers, however, were quickly driven away by the Timucua people; further landings were similarly defeated by the extraordinary archers of the Calusa, who ultimately took the lives of Hernandez de Cordoba and Ponce de Leon himself. Clearly, the European experience in North America would be a far cry from their swift victories over the Aztecs and Incas. A panoramic history of the numerous European invasions of North America, this book paints a dramatic new portrait of the centuries of warfare that shook the continent. From the defeat of Ponce de Leon in 1513 to a negotiated peace with the British in 1765, Steele's fascinating account destroys the old image of technologically advanced Europeans overrunning primitive savages, and reveals how Amerindians rose to the challenge of each successive invasion with martial and diplomatic skill. In war after war, the Amerindians and Europeans battled in a precarious balance, adapting each other's technology and tactics and seeking each other out as allies and supply sources for food and weapons. Steele follows the experience of the Spanish at San Agust n, the English at Jamestown and Plymouth, the French at Qu bec, and the Dutch at Albany, revealing the vast range of Amerindian strategies for coping with the invaders. The conflicts that erupted with the European arrival have long been distorted by myth and self-congratulatory folklore. Warpaths offers students of American history and Native American studies a startling new look at this pivotal era, combining social, cultural, and military history to provide a more nuanced portrait of the violence that gave birth to modern North America., In 1513, only a few years before Cortes conquered the Aztec empire, Juan Ponce de Leon and three shiploads of conquistadores landed just south of what is now St. Augustine, Florida.

- o***q (1964)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufGood seller to deal with, items as described, some looked brand new, some were well used. A few were off rifles that were stored with barrel down and the flash hider cut through the cap. Contacted the seller via email, about a MINUTE (maybe seconds) after sending the email, seller called to resolve the issue. I wish all sellers on ebay were as prompt and courteous. Great price for HK muzzle covers.
