About this product
Product Information
A fascinating new perspective on Native seafaring and colonial violence in the seventeenth-century American Northeast Andrew Lipman's eye-opening first book is the previously untold story of how the ocean became a "frontier" between colonists and Indians. When the English and Dutch empires both tried to claim the same patch of coast between the Hudson River and Cape Cod, the sea itself became the arena of contact and conflict. During the violent European invasions, the region's Algonquian-speaking Natives were navigators, boatbuilders, fishermen, pirates, and merchants who became active players in the emergence of the Atlantic World. Drawing from a wide range of English, Dutch, and archeological sources, Lipman uncovers a new geography of Native America that incorporates seawater as well as soil. Looking past Europeans' arbitrary land boundaries, he reveals unseen links between local episodes and global events on distant shores. Lipman's book "successfully redirects the way we look at a familiar history" (Neal Salisbury, Smith College). Extensively researched and elegantly written, this latest addition to Yale's seventeenth-century American history list brings the early years of New England and New York vividly to life.

"Gripping . . . Lipman innovatively uses the sea to unite the histories of New York, New England and the region's native peoples by following the sailing ships and canoes along Long Island Sound up to Nantucket."--Kathleen DuVal, The Wall Street Journal "Written in lucid and graceful prose . . . Lipman's impressive work is crucial reading."-- Publishers Weekly , starred review "A brilliant reimagining of the English and Dutch settlements in New England and New York, and the role that the Atlantic Ocean played, as a frontier between the Native tribes and the European empires."-- True West "A profound, wide-ranging analysis of the commercial ambitions and vexed morality that transformed the Southern New England and New York coastal lands into the staging grounds they became."-- Providence Journal "An exceptionally well-written book."-- Choice "[Lipman] gives the reader an intriguing and ingenious story . . . enlightening and intelligent."-- East Hampton Star "Fresh and exciting . . . a brilliant book."-- Mystic Seaport Magazine "Deeply researched and crisply written . . . The Saltwater Frontier is an important book . . . Lipman imbues careful research with interpretive flair, and as a result the book glows with new insights."-- American Historical Review "[I]n its sweeping narrative, engaging style, minute research, and compelling argument, The Saltwater Frontier represents an important contribution to the growing fields of Atlantic studies and Native studies."--Oana Godeanu-Kenworthy, H-Amstdy "An unraveling of New England narratives . . . The Saltwater Frontier will long remain a beautiful rendition of the New England story, and for that we may be appreciative."--Juliana Barr, William and Mary Quarterly Winner of the 2016 Bancroft Prize in American History Won honorable mention for the 2016 PROSE Awards in the U.S. History category Selected as a 2016 New England Society Book Awards Finalists in the Nonfiction: History & Biography category "With The Saltwater Frontier , Andrew Lipman emerges as one of the greatest prose stylists among early American historians. Even more significantly, Lipman's water-centric approach to Indian-European interactions upends much that we thought we knew. This book is simply superb."--Erik R. Seeman, author of Death in the New World: Cross-Cultural Encounters, 1492-1800 "Most histories claim to be new; Andrew Lipman's The Saltwater Frontier actually is. He tells how, facing invasion from the sea, Indian peoples responded by turning to the sea."--Richard White, author of The Middle Ground "This cutting-edge study will draw much needed attention to the waters of seventeenth-century Long Island Sound as a zone of Indian-colonial contact and imperial rivalry. Lipman approaches his topic with uncommon intelligence, creativity, and literary grace."-- David J. Silverman, George Washington University "A vitally important book for its maritime and regional foci, for its array of stunning insights on the events discussed, and for its engaging writing style."--Neal Salisbury, Smith College, "Gripping. . . .

Very easy transaction.
Unfortunately, though, when the item arrived it didn't quite meet the criteria for "Very Good" condition, as stated in the listing. The outer box as well as every one of the cases and liners inside showed various levels of damage as shown in my pictures. The discs themselves appear to be fine and for $5 it's hard to complain, but I might have considered other listings for the item if I knew the actual condition.

Took 14 days to get here. When received it in tight packaging, was careful getting it out so wouldn't rip it but the cover was already ripped in a way I wouldn't have been able to rip it. But overall, book is in great shape, just weird it took so long to get here. No seller communication...I have not reached out, book was at a fair price.
