Frontier Forts Under Fire

The Attacks on Fort William Henry (1757) and Fort Phil Kearny (1866)

Beschreibung

"This book reexamines the traumatic events at both forts. The Fort William Henry Massacre was condemned by both British and French as barbaric. Yet these European powers proved capable of similar crimes. The Fort Phil Kearny defeat, traditionally attributed to Captain William Fetterman's having disobeyed orders, has been scrutinized in recent years"--
