As the frontier sideshow of the Seven Years' War, being fought between the powerful English and French empires in the 1760s, the French and Indian War brought northern America firmly under the control of Great Britain, and removed the vital French counter-weight used by native American Indian tribes to block the westward encroachment of land-hungry English settlers. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAn excellent introduction to the study of this pivotal war, \u003ci\u003eThe French and Indian War\u003c\/i\u003e begins with a detailed timeline that provides both local and global contexts and a narrative chapter providing a bird's-eye view of the war's unfolding.
