Introduction by the Editor The French War and the Revolution As the Spaniards had been first to explore and possess the regions bordering on the Gulf of Mexico and extending across the southwest to the Pacific, So, in the next generation, were the French first to grasp the imperial domain watered by the Mississippi and many of its tributaries.
By what steps this territory was wrested by the English from the French, as the Atlantic seaboard had been snatched by England from Spain. By what other steps English colonists established on that seaboard wrested from the mother country that more imperial domain bounded by the Atlantic, the Pacific, the Gulf, and Great Lakes, constitute the story embraced in the third of these great epochs in American history.

virtually began during the great Frontenac first administration in the voyages of Marquette and La Salle. Did not assume an aspect of actual war until Frontenac Now a veteran of French courts, camps, and battlefields, and past seventy years of age, arrived a second time in Canada as governor. Thenceforth for three quarters of a century the struggle went on. Now by the peaceful methods of increasing and spreading population, trade and industry, now intermittently, by open attacks on settlements, the burning of homes, and the massacre of their inhabitants. Frontenac's avowed purpose in coming to America again was to secure the Hudson Valley. Which, added to the St. Lawrence, Ohio, Mississippi, and the Great Lakes, already in French control, would have meant practical control of the North American continent.
As Champlain in sixteen oh nine had made war on the Indians of New York, so in his second administration did Frontenac in sixteen eighty nine to ninety six. By such means both men gave, first to the Dutch and then to the English, who cultivated their friendship, the powerful aid of that people in the border and barrier state of New York. Most historians now believe that the English alliance with the Indians, as fostered by Sir William Johnson, really turned the scale in English favor. One of the incidents of Frontenac's operations southward was the massacre of Schenectady in sixteen ninety. Others were similar outrages on frontier settlements in Maine, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts, these attacks coming to an end only with the peace of Riswick and the death of Frontenac in sixteen ninety eight.
