Descriere magazin:
One of the most dramatic tales from early pioneer America, the story of Tom Quick and his one-man war against the American Indians still arouses strong emotions to this day-especially among the descendants of his victims, to the point where his monument was attacked and taken down in 1997. Born in 1734 of Dutch ancestry, Tom Quick lived in peace alongside the Indians for the first part of his life, learning their language, hunting with them, and discovering all of their ways. His path ran up and down the Delaware River, and Indians were frequent guests at the Quick household. The Indians, however, soon realized that increasing white settlement would ultimately deprive them of their land, and decided to attempt the extermination of all the Europeans along the Delaware. The Quick family were some of the early victims, and Tom witnessed his father being brutally scalped while still alive. It was this incident which determined Tom Quick\'s future. Tom Quick\'s story weaves in-between that of the early settlers, the brutal French and Indian Wars, and finally the American Revolutionary conflict. This no-holds barred description reveals in gory detail the brutal racial war waged between Indians and whites-and the British use of Indians to murder and attack settlers in early America. Tom Quick\'s true story is one that is now suppressed by the dictates of present-day political correctness-but this does not affect its veracity or historical importance in understanding the dynamics of racial conquest and conflict.
