Reseña del libro "The 1778 Treaty of Fort Pitt (en Inglés)"

Failed Treaty: The Treaty of Fort Pitt and the Promise That Never WasIn 1778, amid the uncertainty of the American Revolution, the United States entered into the Treaty of Fort Pitt with the Lenni Lenape (Delaware Nation)-the first formal treaty between the newly independent United States and a Native American nation. More than a military alliance, the treaty contained an extraordinary provision that envisioned the possibility of a Native-led state joining the United States.Why did this unprecedented promise fail?Drawing on extensive archival research from government records, military correspondence, and contemporary accounts, Veronica Riddle examines the political, military, and cultural forces that shaped the Treaty of Fort Pitt and ultimately led to its collapse. Through the lives of leaders such as White Eyes (Koquethagechton), George Morgan, and other key figures of the Revolutionary era, this study explores the fragile relationship between the Continental Congress and the Lenni Lenape during one of the nation's most formative periods.Rather than viewing the treaty as an isolated diplomatic agreement, Failed Treaty reveals how conflicting priorities, wartime pressures, shifting alliances, and broken promises transformed what could have become a landmark moment in American and Native diplomacy into one of history's most overlooked turning points.Ideal for readers interested in Revolutionary America, Native American history, early American diplomacy, Indigenous-United States relations, and the founding era, this work sheds new light on a treaty whose legacy continues to shape historical conversations today.
