Most of us think of the American Revolutionary War as being fought only in the Colonies stretched along the Atlantic seaboard. But the region between the Ohio River and the Great Lakes, the Alleghenies and the Mississippi later known as the Old Northwest, figured quite prominently. A frontiersman, George Rogers Clark, carried out a campaign of conquest in the Illinois country that for enterprise, daring and determination is equal to any in our history. His feat was chiefly responsible for giving this area to the Colonies, rather than to Canada, under the Treaty of Paris in 1783.

The conquest of Illinois, which was wrested from the British in 1770, was recorded by Clark, the campaign's leader, ten years later. This volume reprints the 1920 edition published by Milo Milton Quaife, with its index and standardized spelling. Rand Burnette (history, MacMurray College, Jacksonville, Illinois) has written an introduction. Clark's narrative is a significant historical document and its reprinting will be welcome to historians and students alike. c. Book News Inc.
