## Resource

It is 1754 and for over 60 years the rival superpowers of Britain & France have waged wars, both hot & cold, across the North American continent. Into this ancient feud steps a young Virginian colonial militiaman named George Washington. His actions will ignite a war on the American frontier that will spread across the world and lead to one Britain's worst defeats, the truly terrible failure that was the Braddock Expedition.
