This book tells the stories of the men and women who traveled across the mountain ranges and through the valleys that made up the Appalachian region, focusing on the 18th century leading to the American Revolution and events that occurred mainly in Pennsylvania and New York. It highlights the geography of the region-the waterways, the gaps in the mountains, and the forest trails connecting the Native American villages. It discusses the Native Americans dispossessed of their lands, Conrad Weiser and Shikellamy crossing rough terrain, Scots-Irish emigrants building churches, Nurse Charlotte Browne retreating and the defeat of Gen. Edward Braddock, Mary Jemison a PA girl transformed into a Seneca matron, and much more. First-person accounts in journals, diaries, and reports help capture this fascinating period in our country’s history.
