Coyne is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The work focuses on the geography and early inhabitants of southwestern Ontario, detailing the life and interactions of the Neutral Nation from the time of early European contact through to their eventual decline. The narrative likely highlights archaeological finds, like earthworks, and accounts from explorers and missionaries, particularly how these encounters shaped the Neutrals’ fate. The opening of the text introduces the Southwold Earthwork, a significant archaeological site in Ontario that resonates with the history of the Neutral Nation—an Indigenous group significant in the demographics of the region. Coyne describes the remnants of this ancient civilization, including details of their farming practices, interactions with Europeans, and the impact of external conflicts on their existence. Additionally, accounts from early explorers and Jesuit missionaries set the stage for understanding the Neutrals' pivotal role in the intricate web of Indigenous and European relations in early North America. The foundation laid in the opening section significantly situates the reader to explore the broader historical context of this once-thriving Indigenous nation.
