Note 19 — VOYAGES AND TRAVELS

Long uses as his historical authority the work of Cadwallader Colden (whom he later cites directly), History of the Five Indian Nations (New York, 1727). Colden appears to have taken much of his material from Bacqueville de la Potherie’s Histoire de l’Amérique Septentrionale (Paris, 1722). But Long does not blindly follow Colden, and adds other material.—Ed.
