"When I started this book, I thought, Oh great, another French and Indian War history, but it's giving me new insight into the French stance on the war. Borneman is fleshing out the French interests in colonial America, and their efforts to colonize and make a strong stand here, while maintaining their war with England in Europe at the same time.
There are lagging parts, but overall, I'm learning a lot of French perspective. It also explains the uprising that is always defined as Pontiac's War, about the best of any history of this period I've read."
"As a native of New York state, where much of the French and Indian War took place, I was extremely deficient in my knowledge of this war which was a prelude to the American Revolution. This book filled in the gaps in my information deficit in fairly interesting way, but the detailed descriptions of each battle were a little dry to me. Perhaps a real fan of military history would find them more appealing. However, I did enjoy the author's characterizations of the key players in the conflict and his descriptions of the European wars that influenced how the Fr. and Indian war was played out in N. America. France did little to support the war with adequate supplies, which did not help the cause of those fighting in America."
