520    From the 1780s to the 1820s, Kodiak Island, the first 
       capital of Imperial Russia's only overseas colony, was 
       inhabited by indigenous Alutiiq people and colonized by 
       Russians. Together, they established an ethnically mixed 
       "kreol" community. Against the backdrop of the fur trade, 
       the missionary work of the Russian Orthodox Church, and 
       competition among Pacific colonial powers, Gwenn A. Miller
       brings to light the social, political, and economic 
       patterns of life in the settlement, making clear that 
       Russia's modest colonial effort off the Alaskan coast 
       fully depended on the assistance of Alutiiq people.In this
       context, Miller argues, the relationships that developed 
       between Alutiiq women and Russian men were critical keys 
       to the initial success of Russia's North Pacific venture. 
       Although Russia's Alaskan enterprise began some two 
       centuries after other European powers-Spain, England, 
       Holland, and France-started to colonize North America, 
       many aspects of the contacts between Russians and Alutiiq 
       people mirror earlier colonial episodes: adaptation to 
       alien environments, the "discovery" and exploitation of 
       natural resources, complicated relations between 
       indigenous peoples and colonizing Europeans, attempts by 
       an imperial state to moderate those relations, and a web 
       of Christianizing practices. Russia's Pacific colony, 
       however, was founded on the cusp of modernity at the 
       intersection of earlier New World forms of colonization 
       and the bureaucratic age of high empire. Miller's 
       attention to the coexisting intimacy and violence of human
       connections on Kodiak offers new insights into the nature 
       of colonialism in a little-known American outpost of 
       European imperial power.
