In this reprint from 2001, Strong (history, Southampton College of Long Island U.) provides a history of the Montaukett Indians of Long Island from 1649 to 2005. The description covers land tenure, clashes with the English, migration, assimilation, the role of the Montauketts as laborers, conversions and missionaries, and the effects of industrial progress. One of Strong's aims is to prove that the Montauketts are not extinct, and he discusses the trial that ruled the nonexistence of their tribe and their resurgence in the late twentieth century.
