520    Alcohol abuse has killed and impoverished American Indians
       since the seventeenth century, when European settlers 
       began trading rum for furs. In the first book to probe the
       origins of this ongoing social crisis, Peter C. Mancall 
       explores the liquor trade's devastating impact on the 
       Indian communities of colonial America. The author follows
       the trail of rum from the West Indian producers to the 
       colonial distributors and on to the Indian consumers in 
       the eastern woodlands. To discover why Indians 
       participated in the trade and why they experienced such a 
       powerful desire for alcohol, he addresses current medical 
       views on alcoholism and reexamines the colonial era as a 
       time when Indians were forming new strategies for survival
       in a world that had been radically changed. Finally, 
       Mancall compares Indian drinking in New France and New 
       Spain with that in the British colonies. 
520 8  Forever shattering the stereotype of the drunken Indian, 
       Mancall offers a powerful indictment of English 
       participation in the liquor trade and a new awareness of 
       the trade's tragic cost for the American Indians.
