Pen and Ink Witchcraft

In Pen and Ink Witchcraft, Native American historian Colin G. Calloway explores the complex history of treaties between Indigenous peoples and various foreign powers, including the United States. He presents treaties not merely as land deals but as cultural encounters, negotiations, and human dramas that reveal the diplomatic savvy and agency of native leaders. Through detailed case studies, Calloway illustrates how these agreements reflect moments of cultural collision and historical complexity in North American history.
