Overview

""Indian Diplomacy and the Opening of the Revolution in the West"" explores the complex relationships between Native American tribes, European powers, and the nascent United States during the pivotal years leading up to and following the American Revolution. James Alton James meticulously examines the diplomatic strategies employed by various Indian nations as they navigated the shifting alliances and territorial disputes of the late 18th century. The book sheds light on the crucial role these indigenous populations played in shaping the political landscape of the American West.
