Martha McCollough. Three Nations, One Place: A Comparative Ethnohistory of Social Change Among the Comanches and Hasinais During Spain's Colonial Era, 1689–1821. (Native American Interdisciplinary Perspectives Series.) New York: Routledge. 2004. Pp. viii, 140. $75.00.
Martha McCollough argues that the nomadic Comanches and sedentary Hasinai farmers of Texas made deliberate changes in their societies both to resist Spanish domination and to profit from the horse and gun trade. When Spain firmly moved into Texas around 1700, the Comanches were a small, weak people while the Hasinais were a large, powerful East Texas farming chiefdom. The Spanish could never overpower either and by 1821 the Comanches had emerged as the largest, most powerful Indian nation on the Southern Plains, while the Hasinais had become small and weak and virtually cut out of the trade.	1
To explain this, McCollough discards such anthropological theories as Boasian historicism, culture areas, ecological systems, and economic models as unable to account for the affect of global markets on the Indians or the Indians' willingness to change their societies to respond to them. Instead, McCollough relies upon world-systems theory, regional analysis, and social history.	. . .
