Richard Flint and Shirley Cushing Flint, A Most Splendid Company: The Coronado Expedition in Global Perspective
An Early Abolitionist Crusade
Between the 1660s and the 1680s the Spanish Crown launched a major campaign to end the enslavement of Indians throughout its far-flung empire. Using this momentous crusade as a point of departure, this article identifies the principal slaving grounds of the Spanish empire in the second half of the seventeenth century; examines the participation of royal officials, colonists, and Native Americans during this protracted campaign; and provides an em…
The Other Slavery: The Uncovered Story of Indian Enslavement in America
Since the time of Columbus, Indian slavery was illegal in much of the American continent. Yet Reséndez shows it was practiced for centuries as an open secret: there was no abolitionist movement to protect the tens of thousands of natives who were kidnapped and enslaved by the conquistadors, forced to work in the silver mines, or made to serve as domestics for Mormon settlers and rich Anglos. New evidence sheds light too on Indian enslavement of o…
Pueblo Indians and Spanish Colonial Authority in Eighteenth-Century New Mexico
Tracy Brown's book is more ambitious than its title would have us believe. Properly speaking, its general subject is power as exercised by Europeans and Indians, both men and women, from precontact times through the end of the colonial period. It is true that the documentation is far more abundant for the eighteenth century than for the earlier period: many records were destroyed during the Pueblo Revolt of 1680. But Brown makes use of the archae…

Frontier Naturalist: Jean Louis Berlandier and the Exploration of Northern Mexico and Texas
Anyone who has studied the early history of Texas has stumbled at one point or another upon the figure of Jean Louis Berlandier. This Frenchman is best remembered as a botanist embedded — as we would say today — in the Comisión de Límites (Boundary Commission), an expedition of scientists appointed by Mexican president Guadalupe Victoria to survey the boundary between Mexico and the United States in the late 1820s. Russell M. Lawson has given us …

Cabeza de Vaca and the Problem of First Encounters
Cabeza de Vaca and the Problem of First Encounters Andrés Reséndez (bio) The Pánfilo de Narváez or Florida expedition issued from Spain (by way of Cuba) in 1527, at a time when only some regions in central Mexico were effectively under Spanish control. Three hundred European men, ten women, a sprinkling of African slaves, and forty-one horses traveled to the Florida peninsula with the intention of exploring and settling it permanently. Yet this c…
The Tropics of Empire: Why Columbus Sailed South to the Indies
Columbus’s famed voyages are so over-researched that it easy to assume that nothing new could ever be said about them. And yet Nicolás Wey Gómez has managed the seemingly impossible task of not just adding a few new details but indeed opening vast new vistas on this subject. He accomplishes this feat not by unearthing previously unknown letters or a long-lost manuscript but by offering us a new lens through which to contemplate the Columbian proj…
Distribution of Y chromosomes among native North Americans: A study of Athapaskan population history
In this study, 231 Y chromosomes from 12 populations were typed for four diagnostic single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) to determine haplogroup membership and 43 Y chromosomes from three of these populations were typed for eight short tandem repeats (STRs) to determine haplotypes. These data were combined with previously published data, amounting to 724 Y chromosomes from 26 populations in North America, and analyzed to investigate the geograp…
From Dominance to Disappearance: The Indians of Texas and the Near Southwest, 1786-1859
F. Todd Smith’s From Dominance to Disappearance chronicles the struggles, strategies, and tribulations of various Indian groups living in a region bounded by the Red River on the east, the Llano Estacado on the west, the Nueces River on the south, and the Canadian River on the north: an area that the author calls Texas and the “Near Southwest” but which imperious Texans may well have referred to as “Greater Texas.”The author self-consciously posi…

Getting Cured and Getting Drunk: State versus Market in Texas and New Mexico, 1800-1850
Santa Fe, New Mexico, November 1821 The public was just digesting the news of Mexico's independence from Spain when rumors began to circulate that a caravan of Anglo-American merchants from Missouri was approaching town. Foreign merchants had occasionally drifted into New Mexico's settlements before, but they had been turned down by colonial authorities-at least in the official record-if not jailed and their cargoes seized.1 This time, however, n…
