Attitudes Toward the Indian as Found in American Literature 1700-1800

This thesis is a study of the attitude towards the Indian as shown in American literature of the eighteenth century, a period which, to the writer\u27s knowledge, has not been reviewed. Albert Keiser\u27s book, The Indian in American Literature, covers the entire field but considers only the major writers and their treatment of the Indian, thus excluding all but a small group of writers from 1700 to 1800
