Book excerpt: Francis Parkman, America's greatest narrative historian, immortal for The Oregon Trail (1849), devoted much of his career to writing about the struggle of France and England for domination in America. The Conspiracy of Pontiac is an account of the Indian wars that occurred on the Appalachian frontier, extending from western Virginia to what is now Wisconsin and Michigan, in 1763-65. Parkman portrays the inflammatory situation that led up to and followed the French and Indian War. With France's loss of its North American colonies in 1763, the English took possession of French posts, English traders swarmed into Indian areas, and Anglo-American settlers pushed westward into what is now western Pennsylvania, Ohio, and West Virginia. The consequence was widespread conflict--usually known as Pontiac's War, after the Ottawa leader. Volume 1 begins with a discussion of Indian tribes east of the Mississippi River, with emphasis on the Iroquois and Algonquin families. Parkman expands to include the French and British in the New World and their inevitable collision. Chief Pontiac enters the picture after the surrender of Canada by the French at Montreal in 1760. Because the French had befriended the Indians, the latter soon felt discontent with the victorious English. Revolt was in the air, and Parkman describes Pontiac's "conspiracy" in directing a siege against Detroit. Volume 2 shows the British forts and settlements in America under attack in 1763 by Pontiac's coalition of tribes. Pontiac made peace with the English in 1765, and four years later came to a violent end.

Download or read book Pontiac's Conspiracy & Other Indian Affairs written by and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The French & Indian War ended in victory for the English, and the French were forced to cede all of their forts, settlements and land-holdings east of the Mississippi River, save for New Orleans. This change of hands was followed by a flood of new English settlers eager to take advantage of fresh farm land and hunting grounds. The Indian tribes inhabiting these lands found themselves displaced by the new settlers, who, unlike the French before them, were unwilling to share the land. Pontiac, sachem of the Ottawa, resolved to resist the incursion and in doing so united all the Indian nations who had been in the French interest against the English. Known as Pontiac's Conspiracy, this bloody Indian uprising overran and captured nine frontier forts in fifteen days and nearly usurped English control in the Ohio Valley. This collection of Colonial newspaper abstracts allows the reader to experience the drama and uncertainty of Pontiac's Conspiracy just as it was experienced by the Colonials who lived through it. These articles offer eye-witness accounts of soldiers and civilians massacred, houses and fortifications burned and English settlers fleeing east with only the clothes on their backs. Readers may ponder the enormous amount of preparation needed, and the myriad hazards encountered by troops dispatched on military expeditions into the frontier. The events described here occurred nearly a century before the practical application of the telegraph, and belated newspaper articles such as these were the only means by which the public could be kept informed of the depredations and disasters taking place all along the Ohio. It is easy to imagine the eagerness of Easterners awaiting their weekly papers and the latest news from the West, after skimming even a few pages of this text. This is the sixth volume of abstracts compiled by Armand F. Lucier describing Indian affairs in Colonial America. Like the previous five volumes, it includes a full-name index.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Conspiracy of Pontiac and the Indian War After the Conquest of Canada, Vol. 2 of 3 Single warrior. A war-chief attains the summit of his renown when he can boast that he has brought home a score of scalps without the loss of a man; and his reputation is wofully abridged if the mourn ful wailings of the women mingle with the exulting yells of the warriors. Yet, with all his subtlety and caution, the Indian is not a coward, and, in his own way of fighting, often exhibits no ordinary courage. Stealing alone into the heart of an enemy's country, he prowls around the hostile village, watching every movement; and when night sets in, he enters a lodge, and calmly stirs the decaying embers, that, by their light, he may select his sleeping victims. With cool deliberation he deals the mortal thrust, kills foe after foe, and tears away scalp after scalp, until at length an alarm is given; then, with a wild yell, he bounds out into the darkness, and is gone.
