1 rich Libsyn https://www.libsyn.com 90 600 I’m joined by bestselling and award-winning historian Samuel Marquis. He’s written widely on colonial America, the Golden Age of Piracy, and World War II — and he’s also the ninth-great-grandson of the legendary Captain William Kidd. His newest book,&amp;nbsp;Empire and Frontier, takes us into a largely forgotten but pivotal chapter of early American history: King William’s War and the fragile alliance between Colonel Peter Schuyler and the Haudenosaunee, the Five Nations of the Iroquois. It’s a story of diplomacy, survival, and cross-cultural partnership on a violent frontier — one that helped shape the balance of power in North America for generations. &amp;nbsp; SUPPORT THE SHOW:&amp;nbsp;https://www.patreon.com/c/HistoryShortsPodcast ADVERTISE:&amp;nbsp;https://www.historyshortspodcast.com/advertise&amp;nbsp; LEARN MORE:&amp;nbsp;https://www.historyshortspodcast.com/ &amp;nbsp; SPONSORED BY:&amp;nbsp;www.thecollector.com&amp;nbsp; History Shorts https://www.historyshortspodcast.com <iframe title="Libsyn Player" style="border: none" src="//html5-player.libsyn.com/embed/episode/id/42267855/height/90/theme/custom/thumbnail/yes/direction/forward/render-playlist/no/custom-color/88AA3C/" height="90" width="600" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen></iframe> https://assets.libsyn.com/secure/content/204620005
