Abstract
"The period between 1626 and 1681 was marked by international rivalry for control of the coast and trading settlements, in which the English were ultimately successful. Although the lives of the coastal tribes of the Delaware were considerably altered during this period it was no disaster from the Indian point of view. In fact the Indians almost universally welcomed the new goods and services offered by the white traders in return for furs and skins, and often took advantage of the competitive situation among the Europeans to increase the amount of goods they were receiving."
