Long story short: There are thousands of people indigenous to the Americas who lived and died in Europe. Their lives are often over shadowed by the other atrocities that have taken place in history. Their stories matter. I would recommend this to any history buffs, activists, social scientists or lay people who just want to learn more about the “New World” and it’s interactions with Europe.

Much needed corrective to the "discovery" histories written about the nations of the Americas and their contact with Europeans. I really think Pennock does a great job of writing in an approachable way, and think this is a very teachable text. Along the way, I found the footnotes thoughtful, and have already recommended it to several people. 

*Thanks to NetGalley and Knopf for the ARC*
