Along the Sullivan Trail : the story of Sullivan's Indian expedition of 1779 that opened northern Pennsylvania and the Finger Lakes and Genesee region of New York for settlement
"The 1779 Sullivan Expedition, also known as the Sullivan-Clinton Expedition, or Sullivan Campaign was an extended systematic military campaign during the American Revolutionary War against Loyalists ('Tories') and the four Nations of the Haudenosaunee which had sided with the British. It has been described by some historians as a genocide due to the magnitude and totality of its violence towards and destruction of the Haudenosaunee." [Wikipedia]
