Description
In February 1763, Britain, Spain, and France signed the Treaty of Paris, ending the French and Indian War. White settlers, free to pour into the West, clashed as never before with Indian tribes struggling to defend their way of life. Calloway unfurls this panoramic canvas with vibrant narrative skill, peopling his tale with memorable characters such as William Johnson, the Irish baronet who moved between Indian campfires and British barracks; (automatically summarized from Amazon.com)Subject
