They unfolded in Pennsylvania\u2019s Wyoming Valley beginning in the 1760s\u2014when Connecticut Yankees began to settle there, clashing with both the existing Pennsylvanian residents and the native Haudenosaunee (Iroquois). Fox\u2019s book covers the seminal events of that era, including the abduction of a Pennsylvania official who was held hostage for nineteen days; while some of his kidnappers were prosecuted, others fled to New York&#8217;s Finger Lakes region.
