Book Synopsis Joseph Brant and His World by : James Paxton
Download or read book Joseph Brant and His World written by James Paxton and published by James Lorimer & Company. This book was released on 2008-10-15 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Joseph Brant was a promising but undistinguished Mohawk warrior living in upper New York State. He became an innovative, influential leader and spokesperson for First Nations, whose support for Britain during the American Revolution led to their resettlement in Upper Canada along the Grand River. Their descendants live today on the large Six Nations Reserve alongside the Grand, south of Brantford in southwestern Ontario. This new, illustrated biography of Brant reflects recent research into the political, social and cultural background of his life. Author James Paxton rejects the interpretation of earlier biographers, who depicted Brant as a man who belonged neither to the "Indian" or the "white" world. Paxton shows that Brant was fully Mohawk, with Iroquoian values that stressed the interdependence of people. He stands as the product of a unique, multicultural 18th-century community in the Mohawk Valley, New York. Using skill and diplomacy and his dense network of relationships and alliances, Brant attempted to ensure the ongoing social, economic and political autonomy of the Six Nations in their new Canadian territory. The events of Brant's day impinge directly on our own. It would be hard to imagine the standoff at Caledonia had Brant not led the Six Nations to the Grand River area and then invited Loyalists to settle among them. Yet, in 1784, Mohawks and Loyalists envisioned a different sort of community, one bound by history, common interest and shared practices. At a time when First Nations' claims against the government promise to become more numerous and confrontational, this book encourages us to consider the inclusive and multicultural legacy of Joseph Brant.

Book Synopsis Joseph Brant: Mohawk by : Harvey Chalmers
Download or read book Joseph Brant: Mohawk written by Harvey Chalmers and published by East Lansing : Michigan State University Press. This book was released on 1955 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The bloodcurdling yell of the Indian on the warpath was a reality--not a cliché, in the days of Joseph Brant: Mohawk. He must have struggled often to avoid joining in that yell of pagan ecstasy in battle in the days of the American Revolution--of Oriskany and the massacre of Wyoming. We do know his struggle--the inward, intense, noble struggle of Indian and White Man within one body, of Indian and White Man within one mind--for Joseph Brant had been schooled in the virtues and hypocrisies of the White Man in a school which New Englanders later molded into Dartmouth College. Here, for the first time, is told in its completeness the touching story of the twofold Joseph Brant--a man with the heart of a Mohawk, by no means devoid of Indian nobility, yet with the spirit of a Christian missionary--he was a conforming protestant--facing a terrible conflict with the encroaching forces of the European West transplanted to America- an irresistible tide that was driving his Mohawk kin to the wall. The Iroquois Confederation was cited as a model of practical government in frontier days even by Benjamin Franklin. Joseph Brant knew the merits of his Indian kin, and strove with all his might to help the White Man understand them; Brandt, knew, too, the dynamism of the white civilization. In the contrast of the two--the Mohawk's and the White Man's cultures--lay the drama of Joseph Brant's struggle for inward unity. He was like Kipling's Asiatic Indian who, hearing the cries of his compatriots rioting in the streets when fanaticism seized the minds of men, could not resist rushing into the crowd, educated and cultivated though he was, to shout with the mob. The story of Joseph Brant is one of the greatest spun on American soil, of drama intrinsically Greek, in its relentlessness, but historic and American in its atmosphere and color." -- Provided by publisher
