Soft cover. Etat : Near Fine. First Edition. Gift inscribed by the author on title page. Ray Ward 's dramatic March Into The Endless Mountains 1778: The Beginnings of War on the Frontier of America, reconstructs the dramatic story of two cultures in clash and the adventures of a double spy who almost changed American history. Ward describes in vivid detail the battles spreading amid the mountains and along the Susquehanna River, westernmost boundary of Colonial settlement. Herein, much as are interwoven the strands of a tapestry, the author weaves a tapestry of unfolding events, narrating the loves, tragedies, espionage and yes, terror that prevailed. The war is seen from several perspectives, Indian, Tory, frontiersman, and those with divided loyalty. All major characters are drawn from real life, including the beautiful Seneca Queen Esther Montour of French and Indian descent, and Mohawk Chief Joseph Brant, college educated, who led the warring Indian nations.About the Author The credentials of Ray Ward have well prepared him for writing this reconstructed history of the Revolutionary War during the year 1778. Colonel Ward, who lives in the region he describes, ably calls upon his knowledge and writing skills to sketch the effects of intrigue and warfare, and the terror produced, as these applied to the northerly settlements along the Susquehanna River. Ward graphically demonstrates this as he delineates the clash of cultures during those turbulent times. He demonstrates how one man almost changed history.
