George Washington's War on Native America. By Barbara Alice Mann. (Westport: Praeger, 2005. xiv, 295 pp. $49.95, ISBN 0-275-98177-0.)

The purpose of Barbara Alice Mann's latest work, George Washington's War on Native America, is to prove that the military campaigns conducted against Native American sanctuaries during the American Revolution were deliberate acts of genocide. Furthermore, Mann purported that George Washington served as the chief architect of that policy in order to enrich himself with land wrested from the Indians. In making her case, the author delved into numerous military expeditions and raids that transpired in the Revolutionary backcountry such as the Battle of Oriskany, the campaigns of Maj. Gen. John Sullivan and Col. Daniel Brodhead in 1779, the massacre of peaceful Indians at Goschochking, and actions at German Flats and the Cherry and Wyoming valleys.
