Misencik’s "American Indians of the Ohio Country in the 18th Century" provides a detailed account of Native American history in Ohio, focusing on the impact of the "Beaver Wars" and the forced removal of Indigenous peoples. The book recounts how, in the mid-17th century, the *Beaver Wars*—one of the bloodiest conflicts in North American history—were initiated by the Iroquois Confederacy to dominate the fur trade. These wars led to the destruction of the Erie nation and left present-day Ohio largely uninhabited by permanent Indigenous settlements for several decades. It was only in the early 18th century that displaced tribes, including the Shawnee, Delaware, and Miami, began to resettle the region. The authors explore key aspects of Native life in Ohio, including the locations of trails and settlements, the influence of Moravian Indian mission communities, and the persistent struggles of Indigenous peoples to retain their homeland. Despite their efforts, U.S. expansionist policies—culminating in Andrew Jackson’s Indian Removal Act of 1830—led to their forced expulsion from Ohio. With careful research and compelling storytelling, American Indians of the Ohio Country in the 18th Century offers a vital look at the resilience of Ohio’s Indigenous nations and the challenges they faced in the wake of European colonization. ------------------------------------------------------------------- 🙋‍♀️ Don’t forget to subscribe to our channel! youtube.com/buckeyebookfair?sub_confi... ------------------------------------------------------------------- 📖 Follow us: Instagram   / buckeyebook​.  .
