Book Bouquet s Expedition Against the Ohio Indians in 1764

Download or read book Bouquet s Expedition Against the Ohio Indians in 1764 written by William Smith and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the fall of 1764, Col. Henry Bouquet led a British-American army into what is today eastern Ohio with the intention of ending the border conflict called "Pontiac's War." Brokering a truce without violence and through negotiations, he ordered the Delawares and Shawnees to release all of their European and Colonial American captives. For the indigenous Ohio peoples, nothing was more wrenching and sorrowful than returning children from mixed parentage and adopted members of their families, many of whom had no memory of their former status or were unwilling to relinquish Native American culture. Provost William Smith of the College of Philadelphia wrote a history of these events in 1765 titled Bouquet's Expedition Against the Ohio Indians in 1764. Subsequent editions and printings appeared in London, Amsterdam, Dublin, and Paris until 1778, making this book the most widely circulated and read work on warfare and diplomacy in the Ohio country to emerge following the Seven Years' War. The literary reputation and impact of Bouquet's Expedition surpassed all similar contemporary works published on either side of the Atlantic and is probably the most prominent description of an Indian captivity narrative available from the eighteenth century. The dramatic return of the captives described by Smith inspired Conrad Richter's 1953 novel The Light in the Forest and the Walt Disney movie of the same name in 1958. This fully annotated edition of Smith's remarkable book, drawn from all the 1765-1778 versions, includes a new introduction with essays on Smith and his contributors and sources, such as Bouquet, Benjamin Franklin, and Edmund Burke, in addition to a new history of the publication. Numerous eighteenth-century images, sketches, drawings, engravings, and paintings are reproduced, and for the first time Benjamin West's two original drawings of Ohio leaders negotiating with Bouquet and the return of the captives are featured. Also included are impressive maps drawn for the book by Thomas Hutchins, Bouquet's engineer, of the Ohio country and the battle of Bushy Run in 1763. Bouquet's Expedition Against the Ohio Indians in 1764 is a lasting contribution to our understanding of early Ohio and of warfare and diplomacy in the eighteenth century.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Colonel Henry Bouquet: And the Western Frontiers of Pennsylvania, 1747-1764 The year succeeding that in which America was first discovered, Pope Alexander, the sixth by his bulls, dated 2 nd and 3 rd of May, 1493, munificiently gave the whole of this vast continent to Ferdinand and Isabella of Spain, following the exawnle of his predecessors, who in 1440, had wrnnted Africa to Kine Alnhonso, the fifth of Portugal. A former Pope had declared hat no such continent did or could exist, and had denounced exconwunication arainst all who should believe the countrary opinion. Ferdinand, Kin of Spain, in 1509, established two vovernments unon the continent of America. The celebrated Dr. Robertson remarks in his History of America, That in order to wive their title to those countries some appearance of validity, several of the most eminent divines and lawyers in Spain were employed to prescribe the mode in which they should take possession of them. The inhabitants could not understand how a foreiqn priest could have any riwht to dispose of their country, they therefore fiercely opposed the new invaders of their territories.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two accounts of Indian warfare in 18th century America Bouquet's Campaigns by Cyrus Cort The History of Bouquet's Expeditions by William Smith The French and Indian War-the conflict between the British and French in the New World has many enthusiastic students. It was shortly followed by the American War of Independence, but the British Army and its Provincial troops were engaged in the interim in conflicts with the indigenous Indian tribes of the Ohio river region as the colonial frontier pushed its way inexorably westwards into the continental heartland. Colonel Bouquet, an able Swiss professional soldier engaged in British service was a key figure of this momentous struggle. He fought against Pontiac and other renowned warriors in a conflict without mercy which included the battle at Bushy Run with which he and his Highland Regiment troops will be forever associated. This Leonaur edition includes two contrasting accounts of the man, his times and his campaigns.
