The North American fur trade left an enduring material legacy of the complex interactions between natives and Europeans. The demand for pelts and skins transformed America, helping to fuel the Age of Discovery and, later, Manifest Destiny. By synthesizing its social, economic, and ideological effects, Nassaney reveals how this extractive economy contributed to the American experience.
