The author also delves into the relationship between the Seneca tribe and the United States government during this time period, including the conflicts and negotiations that took place. The book is based on extensive research and includes primary sources such as letters, journals, and government documents. Overall, ''An Account Of Sa Go Ye Wat Ha'' provides a comprehensive and informative look into the life of one of the most important figures in Seneca history.This claim was denied by Red Jacket, who maintained that the place in question belonged rightfully to the Senecas, and sustained his position by a reference to facts and usages in the past, which displayed a minute and accurate knowledge of the history of the different Indian tribes, that surprised as well as delighted his hearers. His speech was characterized throughout by great ability, and displayed such a power of oratory, particularly of invective, as to excite the wonder of all present, who could understand his language, and comprehend the force of his allusions. His effort was entirely successful. No attempt was made at reply. The first rank after this, without further hesitation, was given to the Senecas.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
