Description
Transatlantic Encounters examines the diverse origins and experiences of approximately 175 American Indians and Inuits who travelled to the British Isles before the American Revolution. And always, Indians and Inuits fascinated the British people, whether the Americans were captives or on commercial display, interpreters-in-training, or voluntary voyagers to petition the monarch and tour Britain’s famous sites.
