North America was not empty nor were its inhabitants savages when Europeans arrived in 1492. Quite the opposite, North America was thickly populated by indigenous people who lived in clean cities, had a thriving economy, and transformed the landscape into bountiful productivity. Forgotten Landscapes reveals the incredible extent to which Native Americans manipulated and shaped their surrounding environs through agricultural practices and urban engineering, resulting in one of the most prosperous civilizations of their time.

For over 120 years, Puerto Rico has lived under the control of the United States, yet it has no vote in Congress, no say in presidential elections, and no path to true self determination. Why? In La Mano de Washington: How U.S. Presidents Failed Puerto Rico, Alex Alicea exposes the long and often hidden history of how U.S. presidents, both Democrat and Republican, have neglected, exploited, and undermined the island since 1898.

Alaska’s history is as wild as its wilderness, and just as unwilling to be tamed. Before the Russians showed up for fur and trouble, Indigenous peoples had been thriving here for thousands of years, navigating ice, sea, and politics with skill that would make modern survival shows blush. Then came the explorers who “discovered” places already mapped in someone else’s memory, the gold rush stampedes, the salmon wars, the Japanese invasion in WWII, the oil-fueled pipeline boom, and the endless political battles over land, resources, and who gets to decide Alaska’s future.

This stirring historical memoir reclaims a family’s truth long buried beneath silence and migration. Spanning centuries, Bound by Blood, Freed by Truth traces the Evans–Gibson lineage from Jane Gibson—a free Indian woman in a time when freedom defied the norms—to a legacy marked by resilience, resistance, and redemption. Through charts, court records, and generational storytelling, Susan L. Kadera uncovers lives shaped by faith, courage, and the enduring power of identity. More than a genealogy, this book is a restoration of a name worth knowing.

In this work, I reclaim the stories of my Cherokee, Lumbee, Monacan, and African ancestors. Through poetic reflection, historical insight, and symbolic naming, I honor the grandmothers listed only by race, the daughters who braided stories into silence, and the sons who carried tribal memory in their hands. Unnamed is both a tribute and a testimony—a sacred offering to those reduced to tick marks, racial codes, or blank spaces in census ledgers. It is my reclamation of identity, my restoration of dignity, and my resurrection of ancestral truth.

This narrative starts with Andrew Jackson before the original colonies had declared independence from Great Britain, continues through Jackson’s brilliant military career and through his becoming the 7th president of the United States. It continues through his promotion of the Indian Removal Act and the resulting tumultuous Trail of Tears.

In this deeply personal and spiritually rich devotional, I trace my lineage to Jane Gibson the Elder—a free Indian woman whose name survived centuries of silence. Through court records, DNA revelations, and ancestral memory, I uncover my Lumbee roots and honor the lives of those who walked before me. From the healing hands of midwives on Virginia plantations to the quiet resilience of Lumbee families in Granville County, I weave history, prayer, and poetic reflection into a tapestry of remembrance.

Drawing on encounters between the Creeks of the Southeast and the Mi’kmaq of Nova Scotia in the eighteenth century, Savage Systers reveals a world in which Native women wielded power through means that shocked European observers: ritualized torture, scalp dances, brutal initiation rites, even infanticide and cannibalism. Far from aberrations, these acts embodied forms of feminine authority rooted deep in tribal culture. In deciding whether a captive lived or died, whether a stranger was rejected or absorbed, Native women determined the fate of peoples and nations.
