That is, like Olson’s seminal work on white democracy, this book rests on the notion that the U.S. is a settler colonial country but doesn’t fully articulate the meaning of this assertion in a polity that has virtually erased the memory of its own foundations. Many readers, I suspect, would have benefitted from a fuller treatment.
