Synopsis:

Interviewed in 1845, Seneca Chief Chainbreaker recalls his time fighting alongside the British during the American Revolutionary War. He recalls not just the battles along the frontier, but also the diplomatic efforts on both sides of the war to sway the Iroquois towards or away from the British forces and post-war treaty negotiations with George Washington. Chainbreaker's narrative is supplemented by other eyewitness accounts of the events he recounts. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

A very readable, fascinating presentation. -- Gordon R. Willey, Bowditch Professor Emeritus, Harvard University "preface"
