Into the American Woods : Negotiators on the Pennsylvania Frontier
463 pages including index. An award-winning historian's beautifully written reconstruction of how Europeans lived in peace and war with Indians on America's colonial frontier. Long erased from history - overlooked even in Benjamin West's famous painting of William Penn's legendary encounter with the Indians - the go-betweens of early America are recovered here in vivid detail. "... subtle, original, and engaging all at once... His creative and elegant narrative not only explores an intiguing subject; it opens up a whole new perspective on parts of eighteenth-century American life that we thought we already understood." - Peter H. Wood, Duke University. A new unread copy. Book
