A historical account of two of the most important waterways in the northeastern United States, Lake Champlain and Lake George. In this work, historian Frederic F. Van de Water explores the rich history, exploration, and strategic significance of these lakes from early Native American use through the colonial period and beyond.
The book gives particular attention to the role these waterways played in the struggle between European powers in North America, including events during the French and Indian War and the American Revolutionary War. Van de Water recounts military campaigns, fortifications, and naval engagements that made the Champlain–George corridor one of the most strategically important routes in early American history.
Blending narrative history with descriptions of the scenic landscape and historic landmarks, the book provides readers with a deeper appreciation for the cultural and historical importance of this region.
