The Eighteenth-Century Wyandot

A Clan-Based Study

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The Wyandot were born of two Wendat peoples encountered by the French in the first half of the seventeenth century and their history is fragmented by their dispersal between Quebec, Michigan, Kansas, and Oklahoma. This book weaves these fragmented histories together, with a focus on the mid-eighteenth century.
