just the norway rat alone did untold horror around the world (countless places where flightless birds etc had evolved pre 'conquest'!) See the book 'Rat Island, Aleutians'
I recall as a kid reading about a man named "Grey Owl' who in the 20's befriended a old Indian guy who told him about seeing countless thousands of dead buffalo rotting in the sun as far as the eye could see, and thousands of little calfs crying helpless by the mothers....omg. To focus on the 'god, guns and steel' aspect of what happened justifies the horror, and NOTHING can do that. Grey Owl's friend was an old man, but the memmory of what white men did destroyed him..
This trump ass** character is nothing!
