This led to the creation of a new economic system based on slavery, white supremacy, and capitalism. Horne traces the roots of this system to the Wars of the Three Kingdoms and the Cromwellian conquest of Ireland and shows how the exploitation of Native American and African labor was central to the development of colonial economies. • • Horne also examines the role of religion, specifically Puritanism, in the colonization process, arguing that the ideology of white supremacy was rooted in religious beliefs and used to justify the exploitation of non-white labor. He also explores how resistance to settler colonialism and slavery developed, including the actions of enslaved Africans, Native Americans, and European indentured servants. • • Overall, Horne's book analyses the historical roots of settler colonialism and the interconnectedness of capitalism, white supremacy, and slavery in the colonial period. Focusing on the Eastern Seaboard of North America, the Caribbean, Africa, and Great Britain, Horne provides a well-researched, distressing account of the catastrophic loss and suffering.
