Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a fascinating account of the author's two years spent in New York during the late 17th century. The author, a British clergyman, provides a detailed and insightful description of the city and its inhabitants, including the Native American tribes that lived in the surrounding areas. The author's observations on the natural history of the region, the political and social climate of the time, and the religious beliefs of the various groups he encountered provide a rich and nuanced portrait of a society in transition. The author's experience as a chaplain in the British garrison gives him unique insights into the relationship between the colonists and the indigenous population, and his account sheds light on the complex and often fraught interactions between these two groups. This book is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the history of New York City, the Native American tribes of the Northeast, or the social and cultural dynamics of the colonial era.
