Based almost entirely on original source documents from the United States; France; and Spain; Carl J. Ekberg’s Stealing Indian Women provides an innovative overview of Indian slavery in the Mississippi Valley. His detailed study of a fascinating and convoluted criminal case involving various slave women and a métis (mixed-blood) woodsman named Céladon illuminates race and gender relations; Creole culture; and the lives of Indian slaves--particularly women--in ways never before possible.
