Through So Many Dangers: The Memoirs and Adventures of Robert Kirk, Late of the Royal Highland Regiment - Softcover
Synopsis
Robert Kirk served with the 42nd and 77th Highland Regiments in North America during the French and Indian War and Pontiac's Rebellion. From Niagara Falls to Newfoundland, from the Carolina's to the Mississippi, he covered some five thousand miles by foot, canoe, whaleboat, and transport ship. By the time he returned home after 10 years of "service truly critical," our roguish hero had not only been captured by Shwanee Indians but hat become an accomplished frontier man. Personal narratives by private soldiers are the rarest of all sources for this war; it's a unique first-hand account. Fully annotated by Ian McCulloch and Timothy Todish and illustrated with paintings by Robert Griffing. The introduction is by noted British historian Stephen Brumwell.
