Description: This book presents a unique collection of documents and notes that explores the complexities of the Indian fur trade in the colony of New York. It sheds light on a crucial aspect of colonial history and the struggle between England and France for control of North America. The Indian fur trade played a central role in the economy, politics, and international relations of the era, with its regulation and control being a key factor in the outcome of the Seven Years' War. Through the analysis of Indian records and Wraxall's notes, this book offers a comprehensive examination of the fur trade's significance and its impact on the balance of power during the 18th century. Its insights provide valuable historical context for understanding the dynamics of colonial America and the evolution of the fur trade as a defining feature of that era.
