Book excerpt: Before the start of that war, there were some disputes between the colonies, and one involved Thomas Cresap. Cresap, who later lived at Long Meadow north of Hagerstown before he moved west to Old Town in Allegany County, was running his ferry on the Susquehanna in 1730. He was located a few miles south of the 40th parallel, which was to be the boundary between William Penn's land of Pennsylvania and the Calverts' colony of Maryland. The book is full of maps, of excerpts from letters, of drawings of the main characters and of battle strategies. It details the frontiersmen's struggles with Native Americans and the cruelties each inflicted on the other.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "It is true, Maryland did not . . . contribute its proportion, but it was, in my opinion, the fault of the Government, and not of the people." ~Benjamin Franklin During the French and Indian War the American colonies contributed to the imperial war effort like never before, Maryland included. Maryland's involvement in the war saw colonial governor Horatio Sharpe and the elected delegates of the Lower House in near constant struggle over Maryland's role. They battled over the deployment of Maryland's militia, over raising troops, and over wartime funding. Meanwhile, frontier settlements burned and Maryland's soldiers joined the effort to defend Great Britain's claims to lands west of the Appalachians. Britain's colonies in North America expanded substantially as a result. Local historian Tim Ware details the political as well as the military conflicts Maryland faced in this unique war.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Maryland's Attitude in the Struggle for Canada, Vol. 7 This paper is a study of the attitude of Maryland in the French and Indian War. Maryland failed to do her duty in that great international struggle between the French and English for the possession of North America, and it was chiefly due, first, to the narrow and niggardly polity of the Provincial Assembly, and secondly, to the dissensions of the Province with the Proprietary government for the purpose of limiting and, perhaps, overthrowing Proprietary rule. The recent publication of portions of the Maryland Archives, under the able editorship of Dr. William Hand Browne, has rendered interesting parts of the history of Maryland accessible to students. The Sharpe Correspondence (Vols. I. and II.) covers the period from 1753 to 1761. It contains much valuable information regarding Maryland's policy during the French and Indian War, and helps to explain the motives of her peculiar conduct. It has been my purpose in this paper, therefore, to present briefly the results of a study of the Sharpe Correspondence and the Proceedings of the Assembly during these years, for the purpose of throwing new light upon Maryland politics at that time. Since Maryland's behavior was due largely to disputes with the Proprietary, I have attempted to trace each dispute from its origin, in order to arrive at a correct understanding of the controversies of the time. We shall find that out of what was really a derelict and obstructive policy developed a commendable spirit of resistance in 1765, which led finally to independence.
