"Ekberg presents perhaps the most complete portrait of any Indian slave women in eighteenth-century North America."--American Historical Review
"Ekberg's work is a fascinating read that displays the full spectrum of his skills as an historian: painstaking research, stirring prose, and the ability to humanize overarching historical processes. . . . Stealing Indian Women, in fact, provides the most comprehensive assessment of this native slave system yet in print, and traces the institution's broad outlines through a survey of existing historical literature and a thorough interrogation of archival records."--Journal of Illinois History
