George Croghan was the leading exponent of the expansion of the Anglo-Saxon race into the Ohio region during the generation before 1775. He was preeminent as an Indian trader, and Indian agent, a land speculator, and a projector of inland colonies. Croghan was one of the first Englishmen to grasp a clear vision of the future greatness of the forest-clad kingdom beyond the Appalachians.
