<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Winner of the Distinguished Book Award of the Society of Colonial Wars.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>The second part of the Covenant Chain trilogy, this work reinterprets early American history especially with regard to the Iroquois nation. The other two volumes in the series are The Invasion of America and Empire of Fortune.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br>This book, like its predecessor The Invasion of America, is part of a history of how Euramericans and Amerindians shared in the creation of the society that became the United States of America. In that long process, different strategies were adopted by varied Indian tribes and European colonies in order to cope with the presence of all the others. The strategy of Puritan New England was armed conquest.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>A learned and lively new history of the Iroquois to 1744 . . . [that] stands by itself as a very important book. . . . [It] surely must now be the definite history of the Iroquois in their era of triumph and the first stages of decline.--Ronald Sanders, author of Lost Tribes and Promised Lands<br>
