Over the following days, they destroyed hundreds of farms, killed at least 140 men, women, and children, and took about 40 captives. So began the Tuscarora War, North Carolina's bloodiest colonial war and surely one of its most brutal. In his gripping account, David La Vere examines the war through the lens of key players in the conflict, reveals the events that led to it, and traces its far-reaching consequences. La Vere details the innovative fortifications produced by the Tuscaroras, chronicles the colony's new practice of enslaving all captives and selling them out of country, and shows how both sides drew support from forces far outside the colony's borders. In these ways and others, La Vere concludes, this merciless war pointed a new direction in the development of the future state of North Carolina"-- |cProvided by publisher. 504 Includes bibliographical references and index. 650 0 Tuscarora Indians |xWars, 1711-1713. |=^A301030 650 0 Enslaved Indians |zNorth Carolina |xHistory. |=^A860398 651 0 North Carolina |xHistory |yColonial period, ca. 1600-1775. |=^A312380 650 0 Indians of North America |zNorth Carolina. |=^A42804 650 7 HISTORY / United States / State & Local / South (AL, AR, FL, GA, KY, LA, MS, NC, SC, TN, VA, WV) |2bisacsh 650 7 HISTORY / Native American. |2bisacsh 650 7 HISTORY / United States / State & Local / Middle Atlantic (DC, DE, MD, NJ, NY, PA) |2bisacsh 949 |i30372013792996 |ojjlm 960 |o1 |s30.00 |tJoyner48 |uJAPP |zUSD 596 1 998 3387035
