Based on extensive research in eighteenth-century primary sources, this engaging history offers an eye-opening look at how colonists--at first, the backwoods Paxton Boys of Pennsylvania, but later the U.S. government--expropriated Native American lands, ending forever the dream of colonists and Indians living together in peace.
