Plain Facts

"Plain Facts" is a historical examination into the rights of the Indian Nations of America to their respective countries. Written in 1780 by Samuel Wharton, it serves as a vindication of the grant from the Six United Nations of Indians to the Proprietors of Indiana. This work directly addresses and argues against the decision of the legislature regarding these land claims.

Wharton's treatise provides valuable insight into the complex relationships between colonial governments, settlers, and Native American tribes during a pivotal period in American history. It sheds light on the legal and political battles surrounding land ownership and the challenges faced by Native American nations in asserting their rights. "Plain Facts" is an important resource for understanding the historical context of land disputes and the ongoing struggle for Native American sovereignty.
