From the Happy Canyon Indian Pageant and Wild West Show in Pendleton, Oregon, to outdoor dramas like \u003ci\u003eTecumseh!\u003c\/i\u003e in Chillicothe, Ohio, and \u003ci\u003eUnto These Hills\u003c\/i\u003e in Cherokee, North Carolina, locals staged performances that claimed to honor an Indigenous past while depicting that past on white settlers' terms. Linking the origins of these performances to their present-day incarnations, this incisive book reveals how they constituted what Katrina Phillips calls \"salvage tourism\"-a set of practices paralleling so-called salvage ethnography, which documented the histories, languages, and cultures of Indigenous people while reinforcing a belief that Native American societies were inevitably disappearing. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAcross time, Phillips argues, tourism, nostalgia, and authenticity converge in the creation of salvage tourism, which blends tourism and history, contestations over citizenship, identity, belonging, and the continued use of Indians and Indianness as a means of escape, entertainment, and economic development.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"The University of North Carolina Press","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52588951961880,"sku":"9781469662312","price":24.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/staging-indigeneity-salvage-tourism-and-the-performance-of-native-american-history-paperback-softback-9781469662312","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
