Book excerpt: By 1763, the Indian tribes contained behind the western frontier of Brit.-Amer. settlement realized that they must band together to stop the encroachment of settlers. In early May 1763, the chief of the Ottawa nation, Pontiac, united warriors of the Ottawas, Wyandots, Chippewas, & Potawatomies for an assault on Detroit. Failing to take the fort, he settled down to a siege. Inspired by Pontiac¿s example, his cohorts captured the small garrisons of satellite forts about Detroit. The uprising spread to threaten the PA posts of Venango, Le Boeuf, & Presque Isle, & finally to reach Ft. Pitt, Ft. Bedford, & Ft. Ligonier. This document describes the attack on Ft. Pitt & the victory over the Indians by the soldiers led by Col. Henry Bouquet at the Battle of Bushy Run. Illustrations.

This book was released on 2018-12-02 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present volume, which was first published in 1799, is the autobiography of frontiersman Col. James Smith, together with an analysis of Indian culture. The book gives an account of the remarkable occurrences in the life and travels of Col. James Smith (later a citizen of Bourbon County, Kentucky), during his captivity with the Indians, in the years 1755, 1756, 1757, 1758, and 1759. It was written by Col. Smith himself. The book provides, for the first time by any author, a full account of the customs, manners, traditions, theological sentiments, mode of warfare, military tactics, discipline and encampments, treatment of prisoners, and so on. It also includes a detailed description of the soil, timber and waters, where Col. Smith travelled with the Indians, and during his captivity, and further provides a brief account of some very uncommon occurrences, which transpired after his return from captivity. Finally, the book describes in depth the different campaigns carried on against the Indians to the westward of Fort Pitt, since the year 1755, up to 1799.

Download or read book Never Come to Peace Again written by David Dixon and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2014-05-15 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prior to the American Revolution, the Ohio River Valley was a cauldron of competing interests: Indian, colonial, and imperial. The conflict known as Pontiac’s Uprising, which lasted from 1763 until 1766, erupted out of this volatile atmosphere. Never Come to Peace Again, the first complete account of Pontiac’s Uprising to appear in nearly fifty years, is a richly detailed account of the causes, conduct, and consequences of events that proved pivotal in American colonial history. When the Seven Years’ War ended in 1760, French forts across the wilderness passed into British possession. Recognizing that they were just exchanging one master for another, Native tribes of the Ohio valley were angered by this development. Led by an Ottawa chief named Pontiac, a confederation of tribes, including the Delaware, Seneca, Chippewa, Miami, Potawatomie, and Huron, rose up against the British. Ultimately unsuccessful, the prolonged and widespread rebellion nevertheless took a heavy toll on British forces. Even more devastating to the British was the rise in revolutionary sentiment among colonists in response to the rebellion. For Dixon, Pontiac’s Uprising was far more than a bloody interlude between Great Britain’s two wars of the eighteenth century. It was the bridge that linked the Seven Years’ War with the American Revolution.
