28004 WAMPUM BELTS, PEACE TREES-George Morgan, Native Americans
And Revolutionary Diplomacy by Gregory Schaaf. Only a few months before
independence was proclaimed on July 4, 1776, the Continental Congress appointed
George Morgan Indian agent in the Middle Department and ordered him westward
on a mission of peace. Using Morgan’s personal journal, as well as
letters exchanged between Morgan and George Washington, John Hancock and
other notables of the period, Schaaf for the first time tells the full story
of the relationship between the American rebels and the Native Americans.
