Eastern Shore Indians of Virginia and Maryland (ISBN 9780813918013) is a landmark study that delves into the histories, lifeways, and enduring legacies of Native communities along the Virginia and Maryland shorelines.

Summary
Rountree and Davidson synthesize archival records, archaeological findings, and oral traditions to trace the Eastern Shore Indians from pre-contact times through the colonial era and into the early modern period. The book thoroughly examines social organization, economy, religion, and intertribal relations, revealing a complex tapestry of resilience and adaptation. Through vivid case studies of communities, villages, and significant leaders, it portrays how these peoples navigated displacement, missionary activity, and changing trade networks while maintaining distinct identities.
About the authors
