Reseña del libro "The Seven Nations of Canada 1660-1860: Solidarity, Vision and Independence in the st. Lawrence Valley (en Inglés)"
Wendake, Odanak, Wô linak, Pointe-du-Lac, Kahnawake, Kanesatake, Akwesasne, Kitigan Zibi are communities located all along the St. Lawrence River valley and its tributaries. They have been home to descendants of the Huron-Wendat, Algonquin, Nipissing, and Iroquois nations. These First Nations have in common the fact that their ancestors were allies of the French and had converted to Christianity. Historians have ignored these nations described as " domiciled Indians" (" sauvages domicilié s" ) by the French administrators. Jean-Pierre Sawaya carefully studied how an alliance of such diverse " missions" was created, developed and conducted to become The Seven Nations of Canada. How did this confederation come about? Who took part and what were their roles? The answers are mined in the massive colonial archives. Seven Fires is original research at its best, combining detailed analysis and systematic investigation, that has enabled the author to dispel the tenacious colonial myth about irrational, submissive, and fatalistic Indigenous peoples. Readers will discover forward-looking people motivated by a deep desire for independence and solidarity.
