Istorijsko-etnografski prikaz indijanskih naroda koji su nekada živeli u Pensilvaniji i susednim oblastima. Džon Hekewelder, misionar Moravske crkve, proveo je godine među njima i beležio njihove jezike, verovanja i svakodnevne običaje. Vredan je za slušanje kao rano svedočanstvo o životu starosedelaca u tom kraju.
