More on this Book

"Empire of Fortune is vintage Jennings. He writes with as much flair and involvement as his predecessors, while challenging their assumptions and research at every turn. No one has done more to demystify the early American 'wilderness' or worked harder to dynamite the anglocentric folktales of colonial history." --Peter H. Wood, Duke University
