Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life and Times of Red-Jacket, or Sa-Go-Ye-Wat-Ha: Being the Sequel to the History of the Six Nations The present volume is but one of a series, the composition of which the author has been meditating for several years. The original design contemplated a complete history of the great Iroquois Confederacy, known at first as the Five Nations, and afterward, by the addition of the Tuscaroras from North Carolina, as the Six, from the discovery to the present time. Circumstances, which were explained in the Life of Brant, induced the preparation of that work first. The design of that effort was not merely to embrace the biography of the chief himself but under the shadow of his name to preserve the history of his people during the half century of his active life, and also to gather up, and reduce to form, the rich materials of the previously unwritten border history of the American revolution. Brant, both as the military leader and civil governor of his people, and also as one of the most active and formidable officers of the border service, was selected as the principal figure around whom to weave the stirring historical details comprised in the two volumes bearing his name. The present volume, containing the life of the great Seneca orator, Red-Jacket, has been constructed upon the same plan.
