DESCRIPTION: “Native Americans of New England” offers a comprehensive synthesis of indigenous history in the northeastern United States. Strobel’s work spans millennia, from the earliest archaeological evidence to contemporary times, providing a nuanced examination of how historic processes shaped Native lives.
The book balances accounts of colonization and dispossession with powerful narratives of indigenous resistance, adaptation, and survival.
Christoph Strobel, Professor of History at the University of Massachusetts Lowell, brings his extensive research and academic expertise to this sweeping regional history. Strobel’s approach combines rigorous scholarship with accessible prose, making complex historical narratives comprehensible to both academic and general audiences.
This series is presented in partnership with the Wellesley Historical Society and made possible through their generous sponsor Christine Mayer.
