Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Four comprehensive and essential accounts of an early conflict in Colonial American historyLovewell's War (1722-25)-also known as Dummer's War or Father Rale's War-was, in reality, a series of conflicts fought between New England settlers and the Wabanaki Confederacy in present-day Maine and New Hampshire. It was primarily fought over land disputes and the inexorable impingement of expanding English settlements on indigenous Indian territory. The war is most famous for its final major engagement, The Battle of Pequawket or Lovewell's Fight (May 1725). Captain John Lovewell led a private company of 'scalp hunters' seeking bounties offered by the colonial government. Nearby Saco Pond (now Lovewell Pond) in Maine, Lovewell's group was ambushed by the Abenaki Indians, led by Chief Paugus. Lovewell and Paugus were both killed during the day-long engagement. Only about 20 of Lovewell's 46 men survived. Though a tactical draw, it forced the Abenaki to abandon their village and retreat to Canada, effectively ending major hostilities in the region. This Leonaur edition comprehensively considers this short war from several perspectives, providing a thorough overview for any student of the subject.Leonaur editions are newly typeset and are not facsimiles; each title is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket.…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Queen Anne's War & The War of Spanish Succession in America by Samuel Adams DrakeAn early 18th century collision between colonists and indigenous people in the New WorldQueen Anne's War (1702-13) was the second of the four French and Indian Wars fought for control of North America as it was settled at the time. It was the American component of the War of Spanish Succession. Great Britain was supported by indigenous allies like the Iroquois Confederacy and the Creeks, whilst France and Spain, were supported by the Wabanaki Confederacy, Abenaki, and Apalachee tribes. As the violence escalated, English colonists attacked Spanish Florida, all but eradicating the Apalachees. New England experienced brutal frontier raids, most notably at Deerfield in 1704, where French and their native allies' forces killed dozens of residents and took many captives. In Newfoundland destructive raids fell upon fishing settlements and the French temporarily captured St. John's. French privateers captured numerous ships before Britain increased naval support to oppose them. France ceded Acadia ( Nova Scotia), Newfoundland, and the Hudson Bay region to Britain. Nevertheless, New France and New England, remained unreconciled, setting the stage for future conflicts.Leonaur editions are newly typeset and are not facsimiles; each title is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket.
