By David Dixon Pontiac's Uprising and the Fate of the British Empire in North America. Prior to the American Revolution, the Ohio River Valley was a cauldron of competing interests: Indian, colonial, and imperial. The conflict known as Pontiac's Uprising, lasting from 1763 until 1766, erupted out of this volatile atmosphere. Never to Come Again, the first complete account, to appear in nearly fifty years, is a richly detailed account of the causes, conduct, and consequences of events that proved pivotal in American colonial history. |
