Synopsis
This military history of the French and Indian War (known as the Seven Years' War in Europe) provides a fascinating narrative of the conflict that preceded the American Revolution. Anderson tells how the colonists' encounters with British troops resulted in a clear sense of their own subordinate place in the empire. He also tells how the the war upset the beneficial relations with the Indians, causing a rift which was never to be repaired.

Publisher's Note
Demonstrating that the decisive "Seven Years' War" changed the balance of power between the British and French in North America, the author argues that this conflict destroyed the delicate balance of power that gave Native people a voice in the affairs of the continent while creating an "American generation."

Industry reviews
"[A] new understanding of the war that enables us to experience its complexity as never before and to see our colonial predecessors as they saw themselves."
Morgan 

"Readers who plunge into the text will discover [Anderson's] flair for narrating dramatic events and describing vivid characters."
New Republic - Alan Taylor (08/14/2000)

"[A] conventional history of the Seven Years War in North America notable for the unity of its conception and execution, the felicity of the author's style, the clarity of his intelligence and the incisiveness with which he reaches his arresting conclusions."
Times Literary Supplement - John Keegan (10/06/2000)

"With the help of maps and contemporary illustrations Anderson chronicles this ironic war with an eye for the screaming detail."
Atlantic Monthly - Jack Beatty (12/01/2000)
