Cultural Encounters in the Early South: Indians and Europeans in Arkansas

By Jeannie M. Whayne

Book Overview

These stories of unique and distinct peoples, their interactions, and their influences on Arkansas and the South fill a void in the literature examining French and Spanish encounters with the Indians. Using historical, anthropological, and archaeological approaches, these essays collectively cover the European-Indian experience in the region, from DeSoto's first contact in 1541 through the Louisiana Purchase of 1803.
