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 awoke with a hurting heart, questioning her happiness. Sobriety was meant to fix her, but she realized that while she had freed herself from substance addiction, her soul remained trapped. Years of trauma had only masked her wounds rather than healed them. Despite her success as a top talent agent representing Hollywood's elite, her lifestyle was making her ill. Instead of relying on drugs and alcohol, she found herself entangled in food dysfunction, self-harm, workaholism, and other forms of addiction. In a bid for true healing, she decided to quit it all. Hallerman later earned a doctorate in Depth Psychology and founded the first Recovery Management Agency, dedicated to helping addicts not only overcome their addiction but also reconnect with their souls. Her philosophy, Soulbriety, emphasizes that true wellness goes beyond sobriety; it involves nurturing the soul. It begins with slowing down and exploring one's unconscious. Through step-by-step solutions and poignant storytelling, Hallerman guides readers on their individual hero's journey. Her work has transformed countless lives, inspiring many to reclaim their lives by focusing on their souls. As Jamie Lee Curtis notes, Hallerman is a vital voice for our times.
