The four great wars fought against France in Europe between 1688 and 1763 had each their counter-_. t The Frontier part in America. King William's war (1690-7), Wars: 169o--as it was called, raged along the entire frontier I73' from Maine to the Hudson. Indians destroyed townships within 25 miles of Boston. So serious was the danger that a joint conference of the colonies was, for the first time, called at New York to concert measures of defence. Acadia was captured but restored at Ryswick (1697). Five years later Queen Anne's war broke out. New Hampshire and Massachusetts were the objects of fierce and repeated attacks. The sack of Deerfield (1711) by a war party of savages under French command and the ferocious outrages which followed exasperated the colonists. Port Royal in 1710 fell to a strong force of colonial and British troops; and with it Acadia passed finally into English hands. At Utrecht, The peace of Newfoundland, though under conditions which Utrecht, 1713. are still a source of grievance to the inhabitants, and Hudson, s Bay, were definitely declared to be British possessions. Acadia was ceded, and the Iroquois admitted to be under the 170 The Conflict of the Two Races. CH. IV. protection of the English Crown. The province of New York thus extended its boundary to Lake Ontario, and vague rights over an enormous area were acquired. But the Treaty of Utrecht did not determine boundaries. The "ancient limits" of Acadia meant wholly different things in Boston and in Montreal. The loss of this territory rankled deeply. Whilst England neglected its new conquest, France bent all her efforts to retain the allegiance of its inhabitants. Louisbourg, in Cape Breton, was built (1716) to replace Port Royal, and...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of the Expansion of the British Empire: 1500, 1870 This History is not a 'Manual, ' i.e., a digest of the general body of facts relative to Colonial history. Events have been dwelt upon, or passed over, as they serve, or do not serve, to illustrate the broad underlying principles which from time to time governed British Expansion. A manual of information makes a bad text-book for a student. For the right kind of text-book should aim at something beyond storing the mind with facts: viz., at stimulating the reader to further enquiry, and at guiding him in the classification of his material and in framing conclusions about it History-teaching is barren if this threefold result has not been attained. Further, the mental discipline which History affords may be better derived from the earlier rather than the later epochs; in our subject, from the period of struggle and experiment rather than the age of full achievement and fruition. The story of the American Colonies, though we lost them, is in this way more instructive than the orderly progress of Australia. For real insight into motives and forces the Elizabethan time, perhaps, has merits which the Victorian age lacks. Hence I have refrained of set purpose from bringing down the narrative to the present day. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
