Peck revisits the stories of Christopher Columbus, the Alamo, and the Trail of Tears from an indigenous perspective as he shows how “official” history is shaped by those in power and solidified by myth and popular culture.

Peck looks back at human migration, trade, and weaponry, and shows how Europeans used industrialized steel to conduct warfare from ever-greater distances.

Peck explores the challenge of reconciling America’s true history with its ideals of freedom and democracy, pointing to the struggle for native representation and the legacy of slavery in institutionalized racism today.
