Trade Review

"Colonialism's Currency is meticulous in the development of its argument, drawing expertly on original sources enriched by an interwoven analysis based both on the author's well-informed interpretation of the data and on secondary literature, resulting in an entirely convincing and highly original book." Hugh Shewell, Carleton University and author of "Enough to Keep Them Alive": Indian Welfare in Canada, 1873-1965


“Gettler shows that currency is a useful tool for expanding territory, asserting dominance, and disciplining people who object to further colonial control. … interesting for all readers.” Canada’s History
