Click for home Search our site: DOCUMENTARIES The French-Indian Wars By Richard Moore The struggle for North America between France and Britain got pretty hot in the middle of the 18th Century as the rival nations vied for control of the New World. Both had colonies near the coast and major waterways of the continent, but the perceived threat to their expansion plans meant it was never going to be settled peacefully. The French and Indian Wars (1754-1763) began in with clashes between a few regular troops, militia and either side's Indian allies, but soon escalated into a costly and bloody little war. In the History of Warfare's The French Indian Wars from Cromwell Productions, experts look at the struggle and how the fate of the continent was decided. Surprisingly, the French did very well for most of the war - mainly through incompetent leadership on the part of the British - although the loss of the crucial battle for Quebec pretty much ended their hopes.

Parkman writes in the romantic style popular in the late nineteenth century; yet, his prose is of such high quality that it never seems dated. In fact, as I was reading, I found it difficult to remember that "Montcalm and Wolfe" was written 116 years ago! I highly recommend this book, which is already a timeless classic, as essential reading for those interested in learning more about the French and Indian War. Montcalm and Wolfe: The French and Indian War > Customer Review #2: Great History It is unforunate that today so little is taught or learned about this important event in American history. Today, it seems that the French and Indian War is all but ignored save for being mentioned as a prelude to the American Revolution which it helped spawn rather than as the major turning point in the history of North America and the world. For it is this bloody conflict, fought in the unending wilderness of America, where French regulars and courer de bois crept through the dark woods alongside painted Huron and Ottawa warriors to attack the English settlements, and young redcoated soliders marched shoulder to shoulder to their horrific deaths by rifle ball and tomahawk, that gave birth to what would become the Untied States and changed the course of world history. But even more than that, it is a fascinating period of history more powerful than any piece of fiction. This is history of the highest order. Highly recommended.

INDIAN WARS The Indian Wars in the area of the present-day United States began in 1540 when the conquistadors of Francisco Vazquez de Coronado clashed with Zuni warriors of the pueblo of Hawikuh. The wars ended three and one-half centuries later, in 1890, when U.S. cavalry troops almost wiped out Big Foot's (1825-90) band of Sioux at Wounded Knee. These two events and the numerous clashes in between were part of the continuing struggle for possession of North America. Warfare was but one instrument of conquest; diplomacy, trade, disease, and assimilation also played significant roles. Warfare, however, was a constant theme, one central to understanding the conquest of the continent. Colonial Indian Wars Almost continuous Indian warfare marked the colonial experience in North America. Spain established outposts in the area of the Rio Grande early in the 17th century with a major aim of converting the Pueblo tribes to Christianity, a program severely retarded by the Pueblo Rebellion of 1680, which drove all Spaniards from the province for 12 years. In the East, English settlers also provoked uprisings as they began to spread inland from the Atlantic Coast. A bloody outbreak in Virginia in 1622 was followed by the Pequot war in New England in 1636-37. In most of the English colonies sporadic fighting alternated with full-scale war for a century and a half. One of the most violent conflicts was king Philip's war of 1675-76 in New England.

French and Indian Wars By Alphabet : Encyclopedia A-Z F French and Indian Wars, U.S. History Related Category: U.S. History French and Indian Wars, To the settlers in America, however, the rivalry of the two powers was of immediate concern, for the fighting meant not only raids by the French or the British but also the horrors of tribal border warfare. The conflict may be looked on, from the American viewpoint, as a single war with interruptions. The ultimate aim : domination of the eastern part of the continent : was the same; and the methods : capture of the seaboard strongholds and the little Western forts and attacks on frontier settlements : were the same. The wars helped to bring about important changes in the British colonies. In addition to the fact of their ocean-wide distance from the mother country, the colonies felt themselves less dependent militarily on the British by the end of the wars; they became most concerned with their own problems and put greater value on their own institutions. In other words, they began to think of themselves as American rather than British.

Fort Ticonderoga Timeline: 1700's The Seven Years' War At the beginning of the Seven Years' War ( the Champlain Valley became an area of contested ground between the two superpowers of the day, France and England. Due to its strategic location on Lake Champlain that protected the portage to Lake George, Governor-General Vaudreuil, the French Governor of Canada, ordered a fort to be constructed on the Ticonderoga peninsula. This was the southernmost fort of the French Empire in the New World. Vaudreuil was anticipating attacks on Fort St. Frederic and the French settlements at today's Crown Point, New York and Chimney Point, Vermont and hoped to stop the push northward by the British army as it sought more land. The Canadian engineer Michel Chartier De Lotbiniere oversaw fort construction and French and French Canadian soldiers and civilians built it. Construction began in the fall, and continued for two more summer campaigns. The Fort was named Fort Carillon. French General Montcalm used the new Fort Carillon as the base from which he launched his attack on British Fort William Henry on Lake George. In July, British General Abercromby led an army of 16,000 British and Colonial troops against a small French force of 3200 entrenched at Fort Carillon. On July 8 the forces were engaged on the heights just north of the Fort after Montcalm's forces had hastily thrown up earthwork fortifications. The

The Library of Congress Congress Approves Nineteenth Amendment Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt After the 36th State Ratified, Prints and Photograph Division On June 4 , 1919, Congress, by joint resolution, approved the woman's suffrage amendment and sent it to the states for ratification. Earlier, the House had voted 304-89 and the Senate 56-25 in favor of the amendment. Disagreement on whether the best strategy was to pursue enfranchisement through a federal amendment or by individual state campaigns had divided the women's suffrage movement in 1869. Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony worked for a federal amendment under the banner of the National Woman Suffrage Association, while Lucy Stone led the American Woman Suffrage Association's state-by-state battle for the vote. In 1890, the two groups united to form the National American Woman Suffrage Association . NAWSA combined both techniques to secure voting rights for all American women. A series of well-orchestrated state campaigns took place under the dynamic direction of Carrie Chapman Catt , while the new National Woman's Party, led by Alice Paul , used more militant tactics to obtain a federal amendment.

Other interesting early Pennsylvania and Scotch-Irish history THE BEGINNINGS OF INDEPENDENCE IN THE FRENCH AND INDIAN WAR-and Fort McCord, Pennsylvania The Swedes in 1643 made Tinicum Island, near Philadelphia the first permanent settlement in what is now Pennsylvania. In 1643 Dutch troops took the area over and held it until 1664 when the English captured it. In 1681 the King of England granted the region of Pennsylvania to William Penn in payment of a debt owed to William Penn's father. William Penn came there in 1682 as its Governor. He wrote its constitution which called for an elected legislature. Penn died in 1718 and his family governed the region until the Revolutionary War. David McCord of Derry (now Hershey) Pennsylvania and William McCord of Ft. McCord near Chambersburg both held original land patents for their lands granted by the sons of William Penn in the early 1750's.

A Brief History of History Reference Book A Brief History Early the next year, 1755, Major General Edward Braddock was sent to America as commander-in-chief of the British forces in America. He quickly set in motion plans to capture Fort Duquesne, leading his troops west from Virginia in June. Meeting the French 10 miles east of Fort Duquesne, the British were defeated with heavy losses, including Braddock who died four days after the battle. Once again the French had maintained their grip on the Ohio Valley. In the north, British luck was better, for they won a battle on Lake George and established two forts just south of the French fortification (Fort Frederick) at Crown Point on Lake Champlain. These were Fort Edward on the Hudson River and Fort William Henry at the southern end of Lake George. This de facto control was confirmed two and a half years later at the Treaty of Paris, February 10, 1763, which gave all of North America east of the Mississippi, other than New Orleans, to the British. The French also turned over their claims of New Orleans and the lands west of the Mississippi to Spain, as compensation for Spain's surrendering Florida to the British. Though the European-based war ceased, the Native Americans in the west remained hostile to the British. The Pontiac Rebellion and other Indian hostilities lasted until the end of 1764, at which time peace finally reigned in North America. This peace, however, would last only a decade until a new war, the Revolution, began a new episode in the history of the continent.
