American Indians of the Ohio Country in the 18th Century (Paperback)

In the mid-17th century, the Iroquois Confederacy launched a war
for control of the burgeoning fur trade industry. These conflicts,
known as the Beaver Wars, were among the bloodiest in North
American history, and the resulting defeat of the Erie nation led
to present-day Ohio's becoming devoid of significant, permanent
Indian inhabitants. Only in the first quarter of the 18th century
did tribes begin to tentatively resettle the area. This book
details the story of the Beaver Wars, the subsequent Indian
migrations into present Ohio, the locations and descriptions of
documented Indian trails and settlements, the Moravian Indian
mission communities in Ohio, and the Indians' forlorn struggles to
preserve an Ohio homeland, culminating in their expulsion by Andrew
Jackson's Indian Removal Act in 1830.
