Book Synopsis
These stories of unique and distinct peoples, their interactions, and their influences on Arkansas and the South fill a void in the literature examining French and Spanish encounters with the Indians. Using historical, anthropological, and archaeological approaches, these essays collectively cover the European-Indian experience in the region, from DeSoto's first contact in 1541 through the Louisiana Purchase of 1803.

Trade Review
“…a well-conceived, well- written, and imaginatively researched effort worthy of a much larger market”
—Journal of Southern History “Altogether, this is a first rate anthology. The compiler, Jeannie Whayne … has done a fine job of putting together an essential book for the study of Arkansas in the colonial period. It is a work of importance to not only those who study Arkansas but to anyone interested in Native American and Euro-Americans in colonial North America.”
