Compare British Drums On The Southern Frontier by Larry E. Ivers, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

This lively account of the southern frontier is the first to give a detailed critical analysis of the 1733-1749 period during which Georgia served as a British military buffer colony between Spanish-dominated Florida and British-held South Carolina. Primarily a military history, British Drums on the Southern Frontier also emphasizes frontier politics and Indian diplomacy. Since James Oglethorpe, first as Georgia's civil leader and later as a British general, implemented-and frequently designed-Britain's imperial strategy on the southern frontier, his character and his political, diplomatic, and military activities are subjected to close scrutiny. | British Drums On The Southern Frontier by Larry E.
