[35]-68pp., as issued. Antique-style half calf and marbled boards. Light scattered foxing. Very good. A rare account of the Indian wars in western Virginia during the French and Indian War. "This very interesting narrative contains an account of the battle of Point Pleasant, one of the few contests between the Indians and the frontiersmen of Pennsylvania and Virginia, in which the whites were successful. The narrator was also present at the massacre of Cornstalk and his son by the dastardly border whites, while the chiefs were voluntary hostages for the execution of a treaty. This MEMOIR OF INDIAN WARS has been printed only in the VIRGINIA HISTORICAL COLLECTION, of the first and only volume of which it forms pp. 35 to 68" - Field. Howes states that this was a separate printing. FIELD 1525. HOWES S1101, "aa." SABIN 93185.
