This first English translation of a richly detailed Dutch account book on fur trade with Native Americans yields essential data for understanding the workings of the intercultural commerce in colonial North America. This is print on demand edition of a hard-to-find publication contains accounts of over 2,000 credit transactions and payment transactions with hundreds of Native peoples, many listed with their own names, who purchased merchandise on credit from Evert Wendell (1681-1750) and his relatives in Albany, NY. This book has been praised as a major addition to the literature on the pre-American Revolutionary fur trade, challenging many widely held interpretations and providing previously unrevealed insights.
