Combining compelling narrative and grand historical sweep,
"Forgotten Allies "offers a vivid account of the Oneida Indians,
forgotten heroes of the American Revolution who risked their
homeland, their culture, and their lives to join in a war that gave
birth to a new nation at the expense of their own. Revealing for
the first time the full sacrifice of the Oneidas in securing
independence, "Forgotten Allies "offers poignant insights about
Oneida culture and how it changed and adjusted in the wake of
nearly two centuries of contact with European-American colonists.
It depicts the resolve of an Indian nation that fought alongside
the revolutionaries as their valuable allies, only to be erased
from America's collective historical memory. Beautifully written,
"Forgotten Allies "recaptures these lost memories and makes certain
that the Oneidas' incredible story is finally told in its entirety,
thereby deepening and enriching our understanding of the American
experience.
