Covered with Night: A Story of Murder and Indigenous Justice in Early America

This saga begins when a Pennsylvania fur trader defends himself when attacked by an inebriated native American. The author takes us on a circuitous journey through the dark and dangerous forest of critical race theory by dredging up a 300-year-old unfortunate event. The book tries to rewrite history and blame colonialism for all that ails America. The writer ignores the fact that native Americans were living in the stone age when they began interacting with pre-industrial revolution Europeans. The author clearly has a bias against white men and their achievements. I really did not like the book and put it down after 117 illogical pages. If you want to feed your irrational hatred of white men, this is the right book for you. The Pioneers by David McCollough is a better written and more balanced book about the downfall of the native Americans.
