More about the book
The narrative explores the brief existence of Fort William Henry and Fort Phil Kearny, two military outposts on the North American frontier. Constructed with the intent of providing security, both forts lasted only about two years before being destroyed by fire. The story delves into the violent encounters between the forts and Native American tribes, highlighting the tragic events labeled as "massacres" that unfolded outside their walls, reflecting the tumultuous relationship between settlers and indigenous peoples during that era.
