"With Rogers on the Frontier: A Story of 1756" by J. Macdonald Oxley is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. Set during the French and Indian War, the narrative centers on the conflict between English and French forces as it unfolds in the wilderness of North America. The story primarily follows Seth Allen, a young man driven by vengeance after losing his family to Indian attacks allied with the French, as he joins a military expedition against the enemy. The opening of the novel introduces readers to a pivotal moment in history, detailing the buildup of colonial forces under the command of William Johnson, who aims to capture the French stronghold at Crown Point. Young Seth Allen, motivated by a personal vendetta, wrestles with impatience as preparations drag on. We learn of the diverse soldiers from various New England colonies, and Seth's determination to fight alongside them. His journey begins as he volunteers for a perilous scouting mission, setting the stage for adventure and conflict as the story unfolds. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
