Dr. Alessandra La Rocca Link will be joining us on September 25th for a 5:00pm book signing for her new book, The Iron Horse in Indian Country, followed by an author talk at 6:30pm. The Iron Horse in Indian Country examines the complex dynamic between Native peoples and the 19th-century’s chief transportation technology: railroads. Using sources ranging from rock art to landmark court cases, Link makes contributions to our understanding of settler colonialism in the West, while also spotlighting the ways in which Native peoples organized and appropriated railroads to resist colonialism and establish themselves as decisive actors in a modern world.
Bring your own copy of The Iron Horse in Indian Country or purchase yours at the UP Museum! Both events are free and open to the public, RSVP to reserve your seat at Dr. Link’s author talk!
