About the book

Draws on contemporary accounts and a wealth of studies to produce this history of the Cuyahoga Valley. Tully pays special attention to how settlers' notions of private property--and the impulse to own and develop the land--clashed with more collective social organizations of American Indians. He also documents the ecological cost of settlement, long before heavy industry laid waste to the region. --From publisher description.
