Restoring the Chain of Friendship: British Policy and the Indians of the Great Lakes, 1783–1815. By Timothy D. Willig. (Lincoln: University of Nebraska Press, 2008. xvi, 374 pp. $50.00, ISBN 978-0-8032-4817-5.)

Over the past three decades scholars have examined the history of the Great Lakes region in the period covered by Timothy D. Willig in Restoring the Chain of Friendship. Some of the most notable products of those efforts, including Colin Calloway's Crown and Calumet (1987), Richard White's The Middle Ground (1991), and Alan Taylor's The Divided Ground (2006), have laid an important foundation for our understanding of native peoples in this region and their negotiations with British and American policies and officials in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Willig acknowledges the contributions of these and other scholars but also correctly asserts that his study moves beyond their works in important ways.
