About this ebook
The real reason for the expedition led by Colonel George Washington to the Ohio in 1754 was to "test the strength and the disposition of the French in maintaining their claim to that vast region" and to determine what forts might need to be built there.
Washington's journal of the trip describes his dealings with friendly Indians and a deadly skirmish with the French forces. You get to see a side of Washington years before he became commander of the American independence armies.
