Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Battle of Lake George (Sept. 8, 1755) And the Men Who Won It
Hendrick had been killed several hours before the battle was fought and several miles distant from its locality. Johnson had been wounded at the very commencement of the action and retired to his t'ent, leaving his second in command to man age the battle and he alone conducted it to its successful result. These are the undisputed facts of history. Moreover, it is universally agreed that Johnson's gross military neglect in making no preparations for the attack almost caused a defeat.
