A landmark history--the sweeping story of the enslavement of tens of thousands of Indians across America, from the time of the conquistadors up to the early twentieth century.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSince the time of Columbus, Indian slavery was illegal in much of the American continent. Yet, as Andrés Reséndez illuminates in his myth-shattering \u003cem\u003eThe Other Slavery\u003c\/em\u003e, it was practiced for centuries as an open secret. There was no abolitionist movement to protect the tens of thousands of Natives who were kidnapped and enslaved by the conquistadors. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReséndez builds the incisive case that it was mass slavery--more than epidemics--that decimated Indian populations across North America. Through riveting new evidence, including testimonies of courageous priests, rapacious merchants, and Indian captives, \u003cem\u003eThe Other Slavery\u003c\/em\u003e reveals nothing less than a key missing piece of American history. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor over two centuries we have fought over, abolished, and tried to come to grips with African American slavery. It is time for the West to confront an entirely separate, equally devastating enslavement we have long failed truly to see. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"\u003cem\u003eThe Other Slavery\u003c\/em\u003e is nothing short of an epic recalibration of American history, one that's long overdue...In addition to his skills as a historian and an investigator, Résendez is a skilled storyteller with a truly remarkable subject.
