The invasion of America : Indians, colonialism, and the cant of conquest / by Francis Jennings.
The cultural devastation of Atlantic coastal Indian tribes by European civilization, particularly New England Puritans, and the creation of an ideology to justify the cruelty are studied. Examines the relationship between European settlers and Native Americans in colonial America, concentrating on New England, and argues that the European settlement should be viewed as a conquest.
