Henry David Thoreau's life-long fascination with Native Americans has been a recurring topic of interest, and it is also a source of modern debate. John J. Kucich charges into the contradiction of Thoreau, considering how he could demonstrate deep respect for this group on one hand and remain largely silent about their genocide on the other. By examining the whole scope of Thoreau's published and unpublished writings and placing them alongside Native writers and communities, this book gauges Thoreau's effort to use Indigenous knowledge to reimagine a settler colonial world, without removing him from its trappings. SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR on a label on the title page.
