Travers' book examines a group of colonial scouts who were ambushed on a patrol in upstate New York by French and Native American soldiers during the French and Indian War. Travers uses this massacre to explore the lives of the colonists who fought, died and even survived this massacre. Instead of focusing on a major battle, Travers tries to understand the people who were involved in this war by focusing on their lives before and after this traumatic event.
