Description

A Half Century of Conflict is a historical book written by Francis Parkman. The book is a part of the author's seven-volume series, France and England in North America, which covers the history of the North American continent from the arrival of the Europeans to the end of the Seven Years' War. A Half Century of Conflict focuses on the period of conflict between the French and English in North America from 1690 to 1748, including the Nine Years' War, Queen Anne's War, and King George's War. The book explores the political, military, and social aspects of the conflict, including the alliances formed by the different Native American tribes with the French and English. The author's extensive research and vivid descriptions of the battles, strategies, and personalities involved in the conflict make the book an engaging and informative read for history enthusiasts and scholars alike.La Jonqui��re still clung to the hope of a successful stroke at Annapolis, till in October an Acadian brought him the report that the garrison of that place had received a reinforcement of twelve hundred men. The reinforcement consisted in reality of three small companies of militia sent from Boston by Shirley. La Jonqui��re called a secret council, and the result seems to have been adverse to any further attempt. The journalist reports that only a thousand men were left in fighting condition, and that even of these some were dying every day.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
