A talk by Frank Salvati, who has spent decades researching the Native American involvement in the Revolutionary War.  He gives accurate details about Joseph Brant of the British Army's Indian Department and his men.  These were the raiders that met local militia of Orange and other Counties in the Battle of Minisink on July 22, 1779--- resulting in a devastating amount of casualties on the American side.  Warwick's Col. John Hathorn was the American commander.
