The North West Under Three Flags 1635-1796

About the Book:-This book is a history of the occupation of the area around the South West of lake Eire in the United States of America. The three Flags refer to the occupation of these lands first by the French, then by the English and finally by the Americans. Since the time of the earliest voyages of French explorers, missionaries and traders, the area around the Great Lakes and between the Ohio and the Mississippi Rivers was hotly contested by the chief colonial powers. Indians, French traders, Jesuits, American frontiersmen, great armies and famous leaders clashed over this important ground, the stage for many significant events in the shaping of early American history. Braddock's defeat on the Monongahela, George Rogers Clark's victories at Kaskaskia and Vincennes, Pontiac's Conspiracy, the exploits of Daniel Boone and Simon Kenton; the siege of Detroit and the massacre at Michilimackinac are just part of this saga.
