   Cougar Face

   Tuscarora Indians were a powerful race in North Carolina and their desperate attempts to fight off slavery and land grabs is documented in very good book called simply. "The Tuscarora War". This was a war fought fought in 1712 after a land surveyor was grabbed and killed by Tuscarora Indians who the proceeded to go on rampage to drive out the White men in Eastern North Carolina. Various Indian tribes joined this great tribe in their quest to gain back their lands. This book talks about all the major players that help produce and shape this was from 1711 to 1715. King Hancock lead this war that produced many deaths and eventually to defeat where many of the Tuscarora were sold into slavery and shipped to the Bahames and other islands of the Caribbean to work and die. You learn a lot of the white evil fighters of these wars from William Brice,Thomas Pollack, Christopher De Graffenried, to Colonel James Morre who lead the decisive victory over the brave Indians at Neoheroka.

Every state in this Nikon has a decisive war and battle that broke the backs of the red nations and helped open up land and wealth to the white race and for North Carolina this was the war. there would be more border so flicks in the remaining years but after 1715 the Indians were pretty much done after the defeat of the Tuscarora who fled to New York to become the sixth nation of the Iroquois federation. The author speculates of a Seneca conspiracy to get the Tuscarora to wage war and defeat by not supplying promised help so the Tuscarora would move North powering the federation. This was about the most interesting aspect of David La Vere"s book and he should of written more about the Indians in these battles. He writes little about King Hancock and Core Tom and some of the other unmentioned Indians that made the fateful decision to execute John Lawson and wage war in the British empire and its sister settlers.
