Description

George Croghan–land speculator, Indian trader, and prominent Indian agent–was a man of fascinating, if dubious, character whose career epitomized the history of the West before the Revolution. This study is based on Croghan’s long-lost personal papers that were found by the author in an old Philadelphia attic.

Originally published in 1959.
