Your History Your Story

In this episode of Your History Your Story, we will be speaking with Michael Curran, author of “French and Indian Wars 1609-1759: Conflicts That Shaped a Continent”.

Michael will talk about the French, British, Colonial and Native American combatants in these wars and will discuss how each of their goals and strategies ultimately determined the outcome in this turbulent period in the history of the North American continent.

Michael will also speak about his recently published novel, “Métis: The Life and Times of Charles De Langlade”. De Langlade, who was of mixed Native American and French ancestry, was a fur trader and successful leader of both European soldiers and tribal warriors in North America during the mid to late 18th century.
