A National Book Award finalist "Reséndez corrects a blind spot in our understanding of North American history and illuminates mechanisms by which present-day versions of the practice endure."--The New Yorker "This book is, arguably, one of the most profound contributions to North American history published since Patricia Nelson Limerick's "Legacy of Conquest" and Richard White's "The Middle Ground." But it's not necessary to be into history to understand its power: Our world is still the world Reséndez so eloquently anatomizes." --Los Angeles Times "The Other Slavery is a necessary work that occupies a loaded historical landscape; Reséndez keeps a deliberate scholarly distance from the material, bringing forth evidence and constructing careful -- even conservative -- arguments. But that evidence speaks for itself, and the horrors quietly pile up." -- NPR.org "The Other Slavery 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. This is historical nonfiction at its most important and most necessary."--Literary Hub, 20 Best Works of Nonfiction of the Decade? "No other book before has so thoroughly related the broad history of Indian slavery in the Americas, and not just its facts but the very reason it has been overlooked." --San Francisco Chronicle "Reséndez is adept at untangling the intertribal slave trade, as well as the pernicious behavior of white settlers in northern California."--Philadelphia Inquirer "With his new book, Reséndez joins a small but growing group of historians reexamining the scope and nutre of slavery in the Southwest and Native America."--Santa Fe New Mexican "The Other Slavery is an eye-opening story about the enslavement of Indians. It is well researched and well written--a tragic, but fascinating look at a little explored dark corner of New World history." --eMissourian "Every now and then a new book comes along that throws a switch on our historical valences and makes us see ourselves anew. The Other Slavery is one such book. Much as Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee did when it first appeared in the early 1970s, Andrés Reséndez's carefully sifted work fundamentally reshapes our understanding of a great enduring mystery: What really accounts for the swift and tragic demise of our continent's indigenous peoples?" --Hampton Sides, author of Blood and Thunder and In the Kingdom of Ice "In The Other Slavery Andrés Reséndez retells a vast section of Native American and North American history by putting forced labor in its multiple forms at the center. The result is a revealing, tragic, and heartbreaking history." --Richard White, Margaret Byrne Professor of American History, Stanford University "This eye-opening exposure of the abuse of the indigenous peoples of America is staggering; that the mistreatment continued into the 20th century is beyond disturbing." --Kirkus "Emphasizing the variety of experiences of unfree labor suffered over five centuries by individuals from, A National Book Award finalist "Reséndez corrects a blind spot in our understanding of North American history and illuminates mechanisms by which present-day versions of the practice endure." --The New Yorker "This book is, arguably, one of the most profound contributions to North American history published since Patricia Nelson Limerick's "Legacy of Conquest" and Richard White's "The Middle Ground."

Synopsis
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, " The Other Slavery 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. This is historical nonfiction at its most important and most necessary."-- Literary Hub, 20 Best Works of Nonfiction of the Decade "Long-awaited and important . . . No other book before has so thoroughly related the broad history of Indian slavery in the Americas."-- San Francisco Chronicle "A necessary work . . . [Reséndez's] reportage will likely surprise you."--NPR "One of the most profound contributions to North American history."-- Los Angeles Times Since the time of Columbus, Indian slavery was illegal in much of the American continent. Yet, as Andrés Reséndez illuminates in his myth-shattering The Other Slavery, 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. Reséndez 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, The Other Slavery reveals nothing less than a key missing piece of American history. For 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. "Beautifully written . . . A tour de force."-- Chronicle of Higher Education, " The Other Slavery 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, R sendez is a skilled storyteller with a truly remarkable subject.
