Were indigenous Americans descendants of the lost tribes of Israel? From the moment Europeans realized Columbus had landed in a place unknown to them in 1492, they began speculating about how the Americas and their inhabitants fit into the Bible. For many, the most compelling explanation was the Hebraic Indian theory, which proposed that indigenous Americans were the descendants of the ten lost tribes of Israel. For its proponents, the theory neatly explained why this giant land and its inhabitants were not mentioned in the Biblical record. In Old Canaan in a New World, Elizabeth Fenton shows that though the Hebraic Indian theory may seem far-fetched today, it had a great deal of currency and significant influence over a very long period of American history. Indeed, at different times the idea that indigenous Americans were descended from the lost tribes of Israel was taken up to support political and religious positions on diverse issues including Christian millennialism, national expansion, trade policies, Jewish rights, sovereignty in the Americas, and scientific exploration. Through analysis of a wide collection of writings—from religious texts to novels—Fenton sheds light on a rarely explored but important part of religious discourse in early America. As the Hebraic Indian theory evolved over the course of two centuries, it revealed how religious belief and national interest intersected in early American history.

"On her fifth anniversary of sobriety, Elisa Hallerman still awoke with a hurting heart. This is not right. I am not happy. Sobriety was supposed to fix her, right? Isn't that what sobriety is all about? Hallerman quickly realized that though she had freed her addiction to substances, she had not freed her soul. After years of trauma and substance abuse, she had only covered up the wounds, rather than truly healing them from within. Despite her sobriety, her current lifestyle - a top talent agent and partner at WME, representing the best of Hollywood's elite - was making her sick. Now, instead of clinging to drugs and alcohol, Hallerman now clung to food dysfunction, sex, shopping, self-harm, workaholism, ego inflation, over-giving, and a thousand other disguises with which addiction covers itself. And so she quit it all, in an effort to ignite her life and mend her soul. Since then, received a doctorate in Depth Psychology, and established the first-ever Recovery Management Agency, one that helps addictsnot only fix their addiction, but reawaken and find consolation within their souls. Leaning on her knowledge of depth psychology, experiences as an addict and as a healer, Soulbriety is Hallerman's philosophy and methodology to allow us to use our soul as our map, our nourishment, our meaning. Soulbriety is not just about being sober; it's about true, soul-centered wellness. It starts when you slow down and grow down, in a way you've been yearning for-but probably didn't quite know how to before. To explore your unconscious root system, plumb the depths of your soul, travel your own individual hero's journey. Hallerman shows us exactly how to get there with step-by-step solutions and incredibly affecting storytelling. And Hallerman is not alone in this endeavor; she has affected thousands of lives, healed many wounds, and inspired countless others to take charge of their life by taking charge of their soul. As actress Jamie Lee Curtis says in Soulbriety's forward, Hallerman is "a crucial voice for theseunprecedented times.""-- Provided by publisher
