In May 1776 more than two hundred Indian warriors descended the St. Lawrence River to attack Continental forces at the Cedars, west of Montreal. In just three days' fighting, the Native Americans and their British and Canadian allies forced the American fort to surrender and ambushed a fatally delayed relief column. In Down the Warpath to the Cedars, author Mark R. Anderson flips the usual perspective on this early engagement and focuses on its Native participants - their motivations, battlefield conduct, and the event's impact in their world. In this way, Anderson's work establishes and explains Native Americans' centrality in the Revolutionary War's northern theater. Anderson's dramatic, deftly written narrative encompasses decisive diplomatic encounters, political intrigue, and scenes of brutal violence but is rooted in deep archival research and ethnohistorical scholarship. It sheds new light on the alleged massacre and atrocities that other accounts typically focus on. At the same time, Anderson traces the aftermath for Indian captives and military hostages, as well as the political impact of the Cedars reaching all the way to the Declaration of Independence. The action at the Cedars emerges here as a watershed moment, when Indian neutrality frayed to the point that hundreds of northern warriors entered the fight between crown and colonies. Adroitly interweaving the stories of diverse characters - chiefs, officials, agents, soldiers, and warriors - Down the Warpath to the Cedars produces a complex picture, and a definitive account, of the Revolutionary War's first Indian battles, an account that significantly expands our historical understanding of the northern theater of the American Revolution.

BACK COVER"I often wonder if religion is the enemy of God. It's almost like religion is what happens when the Spirit has left the building." ... Bono U2 Band Holy Spirit is moving powerfully all over the world. Yet the greatest opposition to the move of God is the religious spirit as it was when Jesus walked this earth. Jesus warned His disciples of the negative fruit of the religious spirit. How much more do we need to heed His warning today and guard our hearts from religion or the religious spirit? Mark writes about the importance of having the power of God in these last days but never permitting our gifts to overshadow our character. Mark shares about things that hindered his call and of powerful things that greatly impacted his life. Too many moves of God have been terminated prematurely because there was much emphasis only on gifting and the power given to man but little on character. In this book Mark writes about how the religious spirit or religion can negatively impact all areas of society and on the contrary Christlike humility, integrity and relationship can have a positive effect. It can also usher in the glory of God, Heaven manifesting itself on Earth in signs, wonders and miracles like we have never seen or heard before. It's already here

In this dramatic retelling of one of history's great "what-ifs," Mark R. Anderson examines the American colonies' campaign to bring Quebec into the Continental confederation and free the Canadians from British "tyranny." This significant reassessment of a little-studied campaign examines developments on both sides of the border that rapidly proceeded from peaceful diplomatic overtures to a sizable armed intervention. The military narrative encompasses Richard Montgomery's plodding initial operations, Canadian partisan cooperation with officers like Ethan Allen, and the harrowing experiences of Benedict Arnold's Kennebec expedition, as well as the sudden collapse of British defenses that secured the bulk of the province for the rebel cause. The book provides new insight into both Montgomery's tragic Québec City defeat and a small but highly significant loyalist uprising in the rural northern parishes that was suppressed by Arnold and his Canadian patriot allies. Anderson closely examines the evolving relationships between occupiers and occupied, showing how rapidly changing circumstances variously fostered cooperation and encouraged resistance among different Canadian elements. The book homes in on the key political and military factors that ultimately doomed America's first foreign war of liberation and resulted in the Continental Army's decisive expulsion from Canada on the eve of the Declaration of Independence. The first full treatment of this fascinating chapter in Revolutionary War history in over a century, Anderson's account is especially revealing in its presentation of contentious British rule in Quebec, and of Continental beliefs that Canadiens would greet the soldiers as liberators and allies in a common fight against the British yoke. This thoroughly researched and action-packed history will appeal to American and Canadian history buffs and military experts alike.
