White People, Indians, and Highlanders: Tribal People and Colonial Encounters in Scotland and America

The book "White People, Indians, and Highlanders" is a thought-provoking exploration of the parallel experiences of two seemingly disparate groups on the peripheries of Britain's empire - Highland clans and Native American societies.

Through a detailed examination of their cultural and economic interactions, the author sheds light on how these groups resisted and accommodated colonialism, only to be eventually dispossessed during the Highland Clearances and Indian Removals.

This book provides a finely-drawn portrait of how indigenous peoples experienced cultural change, economic transformation, and demographic dislocation amidst the growing power of the British.

With its unique blend of historical analysis and cultural insights, "White People, Indians, and Highlanders" is an essential read for anyone interested in understanding the complexities of colonialism and its ongoing impact on indigenous cultures today.
