New Book: 'War on the Run" by J. Ross

[ADK Ephraim]

Just completed reading the new F&I War/Robert Rogers book, War on the Run, by John F. Ross, recently premiered at Ft Ticonderoga.This is a compelling and very satisfying read, Mr. Ross presents Rogers' story in a new 'bigger picture' light, than one gets by reading Rogers' journals. Especially interesting is the differential comparison, near the end of the book, of the life shaping experiences of Washington and Rodgers and the effect on their ultimate place in history. John Ross is the Exec Editor of American Heritage magazine; this month's signature article in the magazine excerpts the story of the St. Francis Raid from the book. If you are a F&I War enthusiast or a Rogers Rangers reenactor, I strongly recommend you take a look at this new book!!

Thanks! I'm building up my library on this topic right now. The title reminds me of all the running DDL did in that movie.
