"A solid, lucid treatment of this understudied conflict. Anderson ably and fairly surveys the thinking and motivations of the British, French, and native American players. Anderson also provides especially good understanding of the power politics between the Iriquois and their many tribal enemies."
"Great little history that gives background on Washington, the mid-atlantic area, and the beginnings of the American revolution, and why it came about"
"I have ancestors who settled parts of New York and Pennsylvania, and I thought I should better understand the Revolutionary War to gain a feeling for their surroundings at the time. As it turns out, it is rather hard to understand the context of that war, without first knowing this one.
Anderson does a masterful job of condensing myriad events from four great societies (French, English, American, and Indian) into one vibrant text that never misses a beat as it races through an account of the French and Indian war.
There wasn't any flourish, and each sentence was so ladened with content that any deviation from attention would render me lost after a single paragraph.
Not a popular subject matter, but great nonetheless."
