E mma H art . Trading Spaces
For more than a quarter century now, historians have been arguing that American capitalism’s emergence was not part of a general phenomenon with an inevitable development but a process governed by culture and contingency and that varied across time and space. Emma Hart’s Trading Spaces provides a nuanced, original, and important contribution to this burgeoning historiography by tracing how the colonization of British North America revolutionized …
A Divide to Heal the Union
This article traces the process by which people in the United States embraced the Continental Divide as a geographic feature of North America in the late 1860s. Building on recent work in environmental history, Civil War memory, geography, and the history of nationalism, the essay explains how accurate mapping alone did not reveal the Continental Divide. Instead, the divide’s conceptualization also depended on Americans’ history of thinking about…
The Defining Relationship
Although Winston Churchill did not popularize the phrase “special relationship” until 1946, it is tempting to see the seeds of the bond he described being sown almost immediately after the War of 1812. Relations between the United States and Britain would still be bumpy, but the Treaty of Ghent established a durable peace; the 1817 Rush-Bagot Treaty reduced armaments on the Great Lakes; the Convention of 1818 set the U.S.-Canadian boundary and qu…

The Indians' New England
King Philip's War
Restraining Atrocity
OVER the centuries, warfare among European colonists and Native Americans has earned a reputation for excessive brutality. King Philip's War, 1675-76, with its horrors committed on both sides, was ultimately the war to end all wars in New England's battle for supremacy. For many historians an earlier conflict, the Pequot War of 1637, exemplifies the ruthlessness and lack of respect for their opponents that the Puritans would again reveal in King …

Symbol of a Failed Strategy
History is not simply something that happens to people, but something they make-within, of course, the very powerful constraints of the system within which they are operating.\n-Sherry B. Ortner\nFor more than three hundred years, historians have pointed to the trial of three Indians for the alleged murder of the Indian John Sassamon as the proximate cause of King Philip’s War. These scholars have posited that the execution of the Indians for Sas…
