"This book examines the creation and enforcement of Canada-United States border from
1775 until 1939. Built with Indigenous labour and on top of Indigenous land, the border
was born in conflict. Federal administrators used deprivation, starvation, and coercion
to displace Indigenous communities and undermine their conceptions of territory and
sovereignty. European, African American, Chinese, Cree, Assiniboine, Dakota, Lakota,
Nimiipuu, Coast Salish, Ojibwe, and Haudenosaunee communities faced a diversity of
border closure experiences and timelines. Unevenness and variation served as hallmarks
of the border as federal officials in each country committed to a kind of border power
that was diffuse and far reaching. Utilizing Historical GIS, this book showcases how
regional conflicts, political reorganization, and social upheaval created the Canada-US
border and remade the communities who lived in its shadows"
