  • Summary

  • It’s July 3rd, 1754. American Independence is 8,037.

    For our second prelude episode we take a look at the war that shaped the destiny of the American Colonies more than other conflict – the French and Indian War. What begins as a series of disasters for British and Colonial forces eventually turns into a triumphant victory, but one that came at a cost nobody could foresee.

    This is the 2nd of 3 Prelude Episodes setting the stage for our series.
