Mohawk Frontier: The Dutch Community of Schenectady, New York, 1661-1710 (Excelsior Editions)
"Early New York's frontier emerges in all its fascinating complexity in this classic account of Schenectady's first half-century. Deftly interlacing the stories of Native Americans, Dutch, English, and Africans to show how each played a part in the community's evolution, Thomas Burke pioneered the kind of shared history that is now prized by those who study colonial America." --Joyce D.
