The great warpath

Description:

The waterway that runs between Albany and Canada contains the richest cluster of eighteenth-century military sites in the US. Fort William Henry and Fort Ticonderoga experienced fierce conflict during the French and Indian War, while the Saratoga Battlefield evokes the drama of the American Revolution. While military historians have told and retold stories of the area's battles and generals, archeologist David R. Starbuck records the daily lives of soldiers, officers, and camp followers by examining the many objects and artifacts they left behind. Because Starbuck and his crews unearthed many of these discoveries themselves, The Great Warpath offers the reader a compelling first-hand account of colonial battles and the men who fought them.
