Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book, an epic historical drama, is an adaptation of a pageant originally performed in 1906 as part of the city of Fort Wayne's centennial celebration. Set in the 18th century during the period immediately preceding the founding of the city, the play reveals the conflicts between the Native American tribes of the area, British fur traders, and American soldiers against the backdrop of a land in transition. The reader is treated to a rich depiction of the city's development from its Native American roots through its transition to a major point of contention between British and American forces. The complex challenges of assimilation and cross-cultural understanding take center stage, mirroring hardships faced by burgeoning metropolises across the young United States. This book is an exemplary contribution to the rich historical record of the American Midwest.
