Assembled here is a representative sample of the council minutes, speeches, letters of correspondence, warrants, inventories, passports, journals, diaries, \u0026amp; other types of records documenting a frontier diplomatic mission of the period. These records reveal something of the range \u0026amp; diversity of documentary materials available to scholars interested in reconstructing diplomatic events along a distant frontier during a critical period of Am. history. Individually, they document political maneuvers \u0026amp; details of everyday life, many of which are recorded nowhere else. Collectively, they provide additional keys to understand better how Indians \u0026amp; colonists shaped a new diplomatic landscape along the Penna. frontier after the Brit. succeeded in breaking French power in N. Am. in 1760.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRobert S.
