In North America's Indian Trade in European Commerce and Imagination, Colpitts offers
new perspectives on Europe's contact with America by examining the ideas, debates
and questions arising in the trading that linked newcomers with Native people. European
capitalization of the Indian Trade, beginning in the 16th century, forced newcomers
to confront the meaning and legitimacy of traditional gift economies and assess the
vice and virtue of the commerce they pursued in the New World. Making use of French
and English colonization texts, published narratives and state colonial papers, the
author explores how European capital investments, credit, profits and commercial linkages
elaborated and complicated understandings of North American people in the period of
colonization
