Abstract | Negotiators of Change is a series of research articles covering aspects of Native American Indian women's history from different tribal groups spanning the time period from the seventeenth to the twentieth centuries. It addresses the role of Native American women within their culture and how European settlement in America affected gender balance within native society. Negotiators of Change is one of the most original and innovative volumes to explore the terrain of Native American women's history. The essays included span the period between the seventeenth century and the present, focusing on the significance of gender in Native American and Euro-American interactions. The contributors present new historical sources, methods and interpretations that enhance our understanding of Indian women's reactions to the changes introduced by Euro-American contact and conquest.
