Excerpt from Conrad Weiser: And the Indian Policy of Colonial Pennsylvania During colonial times the French greatly excelled the English in their ability to secure the friendship and the trade of the Indians. The eagerness which characterized the men of New France, as they explored the water-courses searching for new scenes and new lands, was in marked contrast with the conservative English who clustered near the coast and despised Indian affiliations. The French quickly absorbed the Indians' customs and language, and reveled in their metaphorical phrases.
