The Border Wars of New England, commonly known as King William's and Queen Anne's Wars, is a historical book by Samuel Adams Drake that provides a detailed account of the conflicts that took place in New England during the late 17th and early 18th centuries. The book covers the period from 1689 to 1713, when the English colonies in North America were engaged in a series of wars with the French and their Native American allies.Drake's book is a comprehensive study of the military campaigns, political intrigues, and social upheavals that characterized the Border Wars. He provides a vivid description of the battles, sieges, and raids that took place in New England, as well as the diplomatic negotiations and alliances that were formed between the English and the Native American tribes.The book also explores the impact of the wars on the communities and individuals who lived through them. Drake delves into the economic, cultural, and psychological effects of the conflicts, and he examines how they shaped the identity and destiny of New England.The Border Wars of New England is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the United States, particularly the colonial period. It offers a fascinating glimpse into the complex and often violent interactions between European settlers and Native Americans, and it sheds light on the political and social forces that shaped the early American experience.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
