Kathleen Duval's Native Nations offers a sweeping thousand-year history of Indigenous North America that fundamentally reframes how we understand the continent's past. Rather than treating Native history as a prelude to European colonization, Duval centers Indigenous nations as the primary actors shaping North American political, economic, and cultural landscapes. The result is a revelatory work that restores agency and complexity to Indigenous peoples.

Because a millennium of history demands more than a footnote. Duval gives Indigenous nations the expansive historical treatment they've always deserved.
