Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fort Necessity National Battlefield Site, Pennsylvania The war which was now in progress embroiled all the powers of continental Europe and spread to the contested regions in Asia as well as to those in America. When formal peace was again restored in 1763, all of Canada and the whole area east of the Mississippi, except New Orleans, became part of the British American domain. The F rench men ace on the frontier, which had made the colonies dependent on England for military protection, had been removed. Now the problem of paying for the war became acute. The colonists were burdened with taxes which they considered unjust. Having acquired valuable military experience and having observed the questionable prowess of British regu lars in the American terrain, they soon were pre pared to challenge the authority of the mother country.
