Seeds of Extinction: Jeffersonian Philanthropy and the American Indian - Published by the Omohundro Institute of Early American History and Culture and the University of North Carolina Press
Bernard W. Sheehan
Explains how the white American's conception of himself and his position on the continent formed his perception of the Indian and directed his selection of policy toward the native tribes. It presents the paradoxical and pathetic story of how the Jeffersonian generation, with the best of goodwill toward the American Indian, destroyed him with its benevolence, literally killed him with kindness.
