INDEX.
This volume continues the remarkable story of a Mohawk leader whose life bridged two worlds. It follows his rise from a respected member of the Six Nations to a key negotiator and military commander during the tumultuous years of the American Revolution. Readers will encounter his strategic alliances, his persuasive speeches before colonial councils, and the complex relationships he forged with British officers, American generals, and fellow Indigenous nations.
Through vivid accounts of council meetings, battlefield maneuvers, and diplomatic missions, the narrative paints a portrait of a man navigating loyalty, honor, and survival. The detailed index hints at the breadth of his involvement—from negotiations in Albany to campaigns along the Bay of Quinte—offering a window into the challenges faced by Indigenous leaders amid colonial upheaval. Listeners will gain insight into his personal convictions and the broader forces shaping the era, all while staying grounded in the early chapters of his extraordinary journey.
