The People Between: Dunmore's War and the Indigenous Struggle for Independence
Lord Dunmore’s War is considered the last of the colonial wars and one of the most significant conflicts in western Virginia. This presentation examines the causes and consequences of the conflict while placing it in the context of the 60-year war for independence fought by the Native peoples of the “Ohio country."
