Johnson of the Mohawks
Sir William Johnson may be the

for the Iroquois and allied Indians, adopted Mohawk war chief, hero of the
French and Indian War, substantial landowner and staunch supporter of the
Crown. Arthur Pound's biography was the first fresh look at "Warragiyageh"
since Stone's 1856 work.
Complete and unabridged, including illustrations
from 1930 revised edition are included; full-scale illustrations here. |
Bottle Hill and Madison, N.J.
Between the colonial villages of Chatham and
Morristown, a handful of farms surrounded the Bottle Hill tavern. By the

This exceptional local history was prepared in the late 1800s by the author's
father, and contains dozens of marvellous illustrations which are not to
be found elsewhere. |
