White Devil: A True Story of War, Savagery, and Vengeance in Colonial America - Paperback
by Stephen Brumwell (Author)
A fast-moving tale of courage, cruelty, hardship, and savagery.--Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
In North America's first major conflict, known today as the French and Indian War, France and England--both in alliance with Native American tribes--fought each other in a series of bloody battles and terrifying raids. No confrontation was more brutal and notorious than the massacre of the British garrison of Fort William Henry--an incident memorably depicted in James Fenimore Cooper's The Last of the Mohicans. That atrocity stoked calls for revenge, and the tough young Major Robert Rogers and his Rangers were ordered north into enemy territory to exact it.Stephen Brumwell is a well-known expert on the British army in eighteenth-century America, and the author of Redcoats. He lives in the Netherlands.
