Set against the backdrop of the British Empire, this book explores the history of Mizoram in Northeast India from Indigenous perspectives during the late 19th to early 20th centuries. Kyle Jackson utilizes newly digitized archival sources to illuminate the complex interactions that led highland clans to identify as Christian Mizos. By applying Indigenous concepts to the study of imperial encounters, he offers a decolonial narrative that emphasizes the importance of understanding history through the lens of colonized peoples.
