Never again will readers of Alan Taylor's riveting book see the Niagara River boundary between Canada and the United States as just another line on the map." --Stephen Aron, author ofAmerican Confluence "Alan Taylor's magisterialThe Divided Groundoffers exciting new perspectives on the history and legacies of the American Revolution. Taylor's gripping accounts of struggles over property, sovereignty, and national boundaries in the northern borderland illuminate the complicated connections between the familiar terrain of high politics and the history-making initiatives and responses of his extraordinary, vividly portrayed cast of characters on the ground. No previous scholar has better captured the transformative, often tragic experience of the many peoplesIndian, white, and mixed--who made the Revolution. No one has a keener understanding of the unforeseeable contingencies and consequences of American nation-making, the consolidation of British imperial authority to the north, and the destruction of Iroquoia.The Divided Groundis a magnificent achievement." --Peter S. Onuf, author ofJefferson's Empire "With tenacious research, keen insight, and precise prose, Alan Taylor tells the story of the American Revolution as we have never heard it beforea story of the Iroquois confederacy's struggle for self determination in the borderlands between the fledgling United States and the British empire's outposts in Canada. This is compassionate, innovative history." --Elizabeth A. Fenn, author ofPox Americana "Splendid. Cleverly linked to the divergent lives of classmates Joseph Brant and Samuel Kirkland, The Divided Ground is a masterful telling of the many rivalries that destroyed Iroquoia. After the devastating Revolutionary War, and the relentless chicanery of land-grabbers, came the shackles of a war-prone new international boundary." --Ian K. Steele, author ofWar Paths: Invasions of North America From the Hardcover edition.

Synopsis
From the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of William Cooper's Town comes a dramatic and illuminating portrait of white and Native American relations in the aftermath of the American Revolution. The Divided Ground tells the story of two friends, a Mohawk Indian and the son of a colonial clergyman, whose relationship helped redefine North America. As one served American expansion by promoting Indian dispossession and religious conversion, and the other struggled to defend and strengthen Indian territories, the two friends became bitter enemies. Their battle over control of the Indian borderland, that divided ground between the British Empire and the nascent United States, would come to define nationhood in North America. Taylor tells a fascinating story of the far-reaching effects of the American Revolution and the struggle of American Indians to preserve a land of their own.
