  Examines the economic and cultural interactions among the Indians, Europeans, and African slaves of colonial Louisiana. Rather than focusing on a single cultural group or on a particular economic activity, this study traces the complex social linkages among Indian villages, colonial plantations, hunting camps, military outposts, and port towns across a large region of pre-cotton South.
