Our Savage Neighbors

How Indian War Transformed Early America

BY PETER SILVER

Brief Description:
The main theme of this book is that the disparate immigrants to America only came together in the face of a perceived threat from the Native American population. Friends will find Peter Silver's many sections on Quakers, their pacifism, and the anti-Quaker riots and pamphleteers in Philadelphia interesting, if not shocking. There are a lot of new ideas about early America and Quakerism to absorb here.
