Beskrivning
Presents the history of central New York State from the Ice Age to the present day.The central part of New York State, the homeland of the Oneida Haudenosaunee people, helped shape American history. This book tells the story of the land and the people who made their homes there from its earliest habitation to the present day. It examines this region's impact on the making of America, from its strategic importance in the Revolution and Early Republic to its symbolic significance now to a nation grappling with challenges rooted deep in its history. The book shows that in central New York-perhaps more than in any other region in the United States-the past has never remained neatly in the past. Land of the Oneidas is the first book in eighty years that tells the history of this region as it changed from century to century and into our own time.

Recensioner i media

"I have never encountered an author who has so masterfully painted a canvas with the grand panorama of the history of this region... Land of the Oneidas will have a wide audience, especially among those interested in the history of New York State, regional and local history, and Native American history." — Milton C. Sernett, Professor Emeritus, African-American Studies and History, Syracuse University"This book provides an up-to-date, comprehensive overview of this part of central New York, which has not been written so far. The land of the Oneidas contained the very strategic 'Gateway to the West' and therefore its history paved the way to America's creation." — Harry Schüler, Museum of Natural History and Ethnology, Freiburg, Germany
