William Nester is the acclaimed author of more than thirty books on international relations, military history, and the nature of power, including The French and Indian War and the Conquest of New France and the award-winning George Rogers Clark: ""I Glory in War.""
William Nester does a terrific job of reminding modern readers of
George Rogers Clark's heroism. An important contribution to early
U.S. history."" Douglas Brinkley, author of The Wilderness Warrior:
Theodore Roosevelt and the Crusade for America
""As the Hannibal of the West during the American Revolution,
George Rogers Clark saw his star shine brightly, but it soon faded
due to his own failings, the circumstances he faced, and the
machinations of bureaucrats and jealous rivals. Veteran frontier
historian William Nester chronicles the rise and fall of Clark in
this biography, a must-read for anyone interested in the American
Revolution and frontier history."" - James Holmberg, editor of Dear
Brother: Letters of William Clark to Jonathan Clark
