Klappentext "Dowd strips away the mythology that has long clouded the reputation of this accomplished Ottawa leader. At the same time, Dowd brilliantly demonstrates that the conflict between the British and the various unified Indian nations was not over land or trade but rather British respect of Indian sovereignty." -- Library Journal Zusammenfassung Imaginatively conceived and compellingly told! War under Heaven redefines our understanding of Anglo-Indian relations in the colonial period.
