On The Trail Of Pontiac is a historical fiction book written by Edward Stratemeyer. The story is set in the late 1700s in North America during the French and Indian War. The book follows the adventures of a young man named Gilbert Blythe as he joins the British army and is sent to Fort Detroit to help defend against a Native American uprising led by the famous chief, Pontiac.Gilbert quickly becomes embroiled in the conflict and finds himself caught between his loyalty to the British army and his sympathy for the Native Americans. He befriends a young Native American woman named Wingenund and together they try to find a way to end the violence and bring peace to the region.As Gilbert and Wingenund travel through the wilderness, they encounter various challenges and dangers, including hostile tribes, treacherous terrain, and a traitor in their midst. Along the way, they learn about each other's cultures and develop a deep respect for one another.The book is a thrilling adventure story that also provides a unique perspective on the history of North America. It explores themes of loyalty, friendship, and cultural understanding and is sure to captivate readers of all ages.But this was a mistake. Jean Bevoir and Flat Nose had been eager for the fight, but word had come in at the last moment that the attack must be put off, and such was the power of Pontiac and other great chiefs of that vicinity that Flat Nose obeyed. As it was impossible for the handful of Frenchmen under Bevoir to do anything alone the whole scheme fell through, and then Bevoir lost no time in getting back to where he had left the loot from the pack-train, claiming that which had been allotted to him and his men, and getting away further to the northwestward, where he felt tolerably safe from pursuit.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
