Description: David Andrew Nichols offers a fresh history of the Lakes peoples over nearly three centuries of rapid change. As the people themselves persisted, so did their customs, religions, and control over their destinies. Accessible and creative, this book is destined to become a classroom staple for Native American history.
Review Quotes: Peoples of the Inland Sea is a timely interpretive survey that will hold the interest of anyone interested in the history of the Great Lakes, the development of the American Interior, and Native American clashes.... Nichols adds considerably to the previous scholarship of the era....--The Michigan Historical Review
