Clearing Iroquoia

New York's Land Grab in the 1779 Campaigns of the American Revolution

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book critically examines archival materials to investigate the driving force behind the 1779 Sullivan-Clinton Campaign: the destruction of Iroquoia. This book shows that these coordinated attacks were designed to destroy Haudenosaunee political cohesion, clear the Indigenous population from the land, and replace it with a non-Indigenous one.
