The Massacre of Wyoming: The Acts of Congress for the Defense of the Wyoming Valley, Pennsylvania, 1776-1778 is a historical book written by Horace Edwin Hayden. The book was first published in 1895 and provides a detailed account of the events that led to the massacre of Wyoming in Pennsylvania during the American Revolutionary War. The book begins by setting the stage for the conflict, detailing the tensions between the settlers and the Native American tribes in the area. It then goes on to describe the events leading up to the massacre, including the Battle of Wyoming, which saw American forces defeated by the British and their Native American allies. Hayden also provides an in-depth analysis of the Acts of Congress that were passed in response to the massacre, which aimed to provide aid and assistance to the survivors and their families. These acts included provisions for the distribution of land, compensation for losses, and the establishment of a committee to investigate the events leading up to the massacre. Throughout the book, Hayden draws on a variety of primary sources, including letters, diaries, and official documents, to provide a comprehensive and detailed account of the massacre and its aftermath. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the American Revolution, as well as those interested in the history of Pennsylvania and the struggles between settlers and Native American tribes during the colonial period.With The Petitions Of The Sufferers By The Massacre Of July 3, 1778, For Congressional Aid.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
