From the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of William Cooper's Town comes a dramatic and illuminating portrait of white and Native American relations in the aftermath of the American Revolution.The Divided Ground tells the story of two friends; a Mohawk Indian and the son of a colonial clergyman; whose relationship helped redefine North America. As one served American expansion by promoting Indian dispossession and religious conversion; and the other struggled to defend and strengthen Indian territories; the two friends became bitter enemies. Their battle over control of the Indian borderland; that divided ground between the British Empire and the nascent United States; would come to define nationhood in North America. Taylor tells a fascinating story of the far-reaching effects of the American Revolution and the struggle of American Indians to preserve a land of their own.
