"This work chronicles two treks of Richard Traunter's through the Native Southeast in the late seventeenth century, when a smallpox epidemic was killing unprecedented numbers of Indians, and when the Indian slave trade was contributing to depopulation. Traunter was a trader who made pacts with several Indian nations to increase profits for himself and his employer, William Byrd I, and by extension, to advance the English colonial enterprise"-- Provided by publisher.
