About the event

Clearing Iroquoia: Authors' Presentation at Johnson Hall
Join authors Travis M. Bowman---the head of museum collections for the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation’s Bureau of Historic Sites--and Matthew A. Zembo---associate professor of history and military history at Hudson Valley Community College and instructor of American history at Bard Early College---for a talk about their new book, Clearing Iroquoia: New York’s Land Grab in the 1779 Campaigns of the American Revolution.

In 1778, George Washington, Philip Schuyler, army officers, and New York officials began planning invasions against Iroquoia, the homeland of the Haudenosaunee and several other allied Indigenous nations. Bowman and Zembo’s Clearing Iroquoia offers a fresh perspective on the Clinton-Sullivan campaign and hard truths about of the dispossession of the Haudenosaunee homeland and American colonialism.
