Summary: "connecticut polticians caught lying"

This book without doubt settles the question of the validity of the Golden Hill Paugussetts! The author establishes that there was a valid tribe from first contact until the present.

The book is a history of South Western Connecticut along with an in depth look at Northern Fairfield County. It is also an exceptional piece of investigative writing debunking the politicians lies about the tribe. This book also demonstrates the continued bigotry and corruption that is occurring in Connecticut
