Thomas Briggs

Set in the mid-1700s, War on the Inland Sea takes readers on a gripping journey through North ‎America and New France during a turbulent period of colonial warfare.‎

As winter sets in, Fort Ontario is ravaged by disease and a crippling shortage of rations, thinning ‎the ranks of the soldiers and sailors. With the help of local native tribes, the French discover a ‎deadly weakness in the fort's defenses and execute a surprise attack.‎
Can the British turn the tide against the French in this brutal struggle for control of the lakes? Read ‎War on the Inland Sea for a tale of courage and resilience.‎
