Rethinking the “Indian War”
The standard interpretation of Washington Territory’s “Indian War” of the mid-1850s is not only east-west in its orientation, it also leaves little room for Indian auxiliaries, let alone mercenaries-for-hire from the north Pacific coast. “Northern Indians” from what later became northwestern British Columbia and southeastern Alaska provided crucial productive, reproductive, and military labor for early Euro-American settlers. Because Coast Salish…
The Sea Is My Country
Joshua L. Reid argues that marine spaces and resources were and are central to Makah culture, traditions, and history. Located on the densely forested Olympic Peninsula in Washington State, Makahs were able to maintain their deep relationship with the sea well into the twentieth century and repeatedly adapted to evolving markets and technologies. Employing a marine-based borderlands approach, Reid has written an impressive study of the “people of…
Are Fish Wildlife
This essay argues that mainstream, primarily white, America has historically not valued common fish in the same ways as other more charismatic species, particularly land and sea mammals. The physical characteristics of an animal, its habitat type, its commercial value, and ideas about property in animals all may have influenced popular perceptions of aquatic versus terrestrial species. These issues have, in turn, greatly influenced regulatory and…

Pirates of the Salish Sea
This article illustrates that a transnational perspective reveals how nature and work intertwined to shape workers' responses to evolving regional class relations in the western Canadian-U.S. borderlands. Labor and environment are intimately connected in all the West's extractive industries, and workers engaged and learned about the natural world through their labor. In the watery borderland between Washington and British Columbia, they also used…
