Abstract

"Told from the Indian perspective, this graphic novel depicts the massacre of 20 unarmed Conestoga Indians in colonial Pennsylvania in December 1763 by a vigilante group of Scots-Irish frontiersmen known as the "Paxton Boys", first six Conestoga People at a settlement near what is now Millersville, and then fourteen remaining Indians -- six adults and eight children that were under protective custody -- days later in Lancaster. The graphic novel is half of the book. The other half contains interpretive materials and reproductions of historical documents. It also provides instructional guidelines supplied by the Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History."--

Abstract

William Penn established Pennsylvania in 1682 as a 'holy experiment' in which Europeans and Indians could live together in harmony. In this book, historian Kevin Kenny explains how this Peaceable Kingdom--benevolent, Quaker, pacifist--gradually disintegrated in the eighteenth century, with disastrous consequences for Native Americans.
