- Summary
- "Seven generations of Iroquois leadership: the Six Nations since 1800 is a work that is not designed to be an all-inclusive history, a nearly impossible task because of the divergent paths of the Iroquois peoples over the past two centuries. The book's focus is thus on what constitutes leadership in Six Nations communities."--Preface.
