From wikipedia: Annie Heloise Abel was one of the first thirty women in the United States to earn a Ph.D. in history. One of the ablest historians of her day she was an acknowledged expert on the history of British and American policy toward natives. As another historian has put it: "She was the first academically trained historian in the United States to consider the development of Indian-white relations and although her focus was narrowly political and her methodology almost entirely archival-based in this she was a pioneer." Historians consider her most important work to be the three-volume The Slave Holding Indians. The Arthur H. Clark Company hardcover
