Описание: This is an especially valuable work for students of the French and Indian War. The extensive notes alone provide an abundance of further research materials. As the European powers struggled for control over the New World, the colonists endured wave after wave of brutal Indian attacks. This final volume of the series contains four separate sections: Queen Anne's War, Lovewell's War, Governor Shirley's War and the French and Indian War. Queen Anne's War was known in Europe as the War of Spanish Succession. It lasted from 1704 to 1713. Accounts of numerous Indian attacks are given in this section, which is very detailed with victim's names and places. Lovewell's War, 1722-1726, came about as the militant Jesuit missionary, Father Rale, encouraged Indians to raid the English. Settlers, in retaliation, collected up to 100 for bringing in the scalp of an Indian. The French again declared war on England in 1744. Governor Shirley's War was known by these other names: the Spanish or Five Years' War, War of Austrian Succession and King George's War. Funds were appropriated for forts along the frontier, but attacks on the colonists continued as in the previous wars. The "final" French and Indian War was officially declared in 1756. Major events included the attack on Fort #4 (Charlestown, New Hampshire), the capture of Forts Frontenac and Niagara, the second fall of Louisbourg, the climatic battle for Quebec upon the Plains of Abraham, and the decimation of the St. Francis Indian village by Robert Rogers and his Rangers. This is a fascinating chronicle of important turning points in American history. The exhaustive notes in this volume are as interesting as the main narrative.

About the Author
April Showers lives in Central Florida with her emotional support dog, Dottie. She is recently divorced after 29 years of marriage. Her husband could not take the extreme highs and lows of her bipolar disorder. In extreme highs of mania, Showers would be uncontrollable, and in her dark times of depression, she would not get out of bed for days and neglect herself and her household.
Showers was diagnosed at the age of 45 with Bipolar I disorder and put on medication. The youngest of seven children, she believes mental illness runs in her family, as two other siblings suffer from schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. Showers suspects that her father was an undiagnosed bipolar who self-medicated with alcohol.
Showers has a bachelor's degree in Elementary Education and a master's degree in Public Administration. She was a school teacher for over 15 years before being fired from her teaching job due to a manic episode. She currently works as a peer counselor for the local behavioral health center. She absolutely loves her job and finds it extremely rewarding.
Showers has a good support system of family and close friends who tell her when they see signs of the illness creeping in. Her Catholic faith got her through the dark times of depression when she was suicidal and kept her safe during the extreme highs of mania.
It is her hope that by sharing her story, she can convey to others that there is hope for people living with Bipolar I disorder, and April is proof of the resiliency of the human psyche.
