Summary
"This collection of documents, reproduced from originals in The National Archives at Kew, illuminates the British side of three North American conflicts - the Seven Years War (1756-63), the War of American Independence (1775-83) and the War of 1812 (1812-14). A selection of documents has been made from four important sets of papers in The National Archives. The Amherst Papers provide a wealth of detail on the Seven Years War in North America. The British Army Headquarters Papers (also known as the Carleton or Dorchester Papers) cover the whole of the War of Independence. Material in the Colonial Office Papers relating to Upper and Lower Canada illustrates the War of 1812. The volumes chosen from the enormous collection of Admiralty Papers present rich evidence on the naval aspects of the three wars"--Introduction.
