The History of the Five Indian Nations of Canada: Which Are Dependent on the Province of New-York, and Are a Barrier Between the English and the French in That Part of the World

Cadwallader Colden

1727

Archaeology & Anthropology, History - American, History - Early Modern (c. 1450-1750)

The History of the Five Indian Nations of Canada, written by Cadwallader Colden and first published in 1727, provides a detailed historical account of the Iroquois Confederacy, comprising the Mohawks, Oneidas, Onondagas, Cayugas, and Senecas. Colden examines their customs, governance, and military strategies, highlighting their role as a barrier between English and French colonial interests in North America. The work emphasizes the significance of these Indigenous nations, addressing their overlooked qualities and the complexities of their interactions with European settlers and neighboring tribes. The book includes insights from both Part I (1727) and Part II (1747), reprinted from the 1866 editions.
