Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book goes beyond the founding of Rochester by tracing its history back to the first inhabitants of the Genesee Valley, the Seneca people. Before European settlers, this land was home to the Tenant Unknown, whose faint traces are rapidly disappearing. The study of Rochester's early peoples also includes the mound-builders and the mastodon. The author takes a broad and illuminating view of Rochester's development, from its natural history to its place within the larger context of American history and the conflicts between French and English for control of western New York. Through historical figures such as Red Jacket and the missionaries who traversed the region, this book captures the spirit of a bygone era. This is a story of dispossession and displacement, as well as a story of perseverance and resilienceâ"a story that is both unique to Rochester and a microcosm of the American experience.
