"This extraordinarily capacious, academically sound study broadens the field of Victorian studies." * Choice * "It is in any case no surprise to report that Flint's readings of her sources are always searching and nuanced. The book is also very light on jargon; it is too intellectually confident for that. This will be a major text in the burgeoning field of transantlantic studies. It offers a distinctive portrait of Victorian culture that we have not seen before."---Rohan McWilliam, 19: Interdisciplinary Studies in the Long Nineteenth Century "Kate Flint's scholarly work is a fascinating and ground-breaking study of the Indian as both imagined in literature and visible in transatlantic encounters and exchanges. . . . Her extensive knowledge of both Victorian society and culture and tribal histories and cultures is evident throughout the work. . . . Flint's work establishes fruitful links with recent scholarship and debates which have successfully placed the Indian in a transatlantic perspective."---Mandy Cooper, Journal of Transatlantic Studies "The Transatlantic Indian succeeds admirably in surveying the transatlantic exchanges between Native Americans and British readers and writers during the long nineteenth century."---Siohban Carroll, English Literature in Transition "This beautifully researched project contributes a sweeping synthesis, but its virtues go much farther. . . . Flint pulls off the tricky combination of a tight argument with an exploratory format. Delicate readings of slippery texts will impress literary scholars, while historians will appreciate the book's temporal and cultural scope and its broad range of prosaic and canonical sources. . . . [ T]his is a book to relish, ruminate over, and revisit."---Rebecca R. Noel, Literature and History "The claims of The Transatlantic Indian are superbly documented by extensive notes and bibliographical data; it is nicely illustrated by materials Flint actually analyses; and the book, as an artifact, is presented with the high production values characteristic of Princeton University Press."---Mick Gidley, Review of English Studies "[ I]ts pages, sentences, and images demands fullest attention, appealing at once to our senses, emotions and minds."---Cyana Leahy-Dios, European Legacy "The historical scholarship on white attitudes toward Native Americans is prolific, but with The Transatlantic Indian, Kate Flint refreshes this familiar genre with a transnational approach to Anglo-Indian relations."---David A. Gerber, Journal of American Ethnic History "This is a very informed volume that uses an impressive range of literary texts in order to chart a history of representation and interaction. The crucial intervention of Flint's project is in how it implicates Britain in narratives and discourses regarding Native Americans, in a move that demonstrates the long and intimate links that become forged between an empire and its colony."---Hum, Ethnicity and Race in a Changing World "[ A]s is characteristic of the best scholarly surveys, Flint's book marks out the territory that future scholars will need to subject to ever finer scrutiny."---Joshua David Bellin, Modern Philology
