First printed in 1765, Rogers Journals read like the Officer of the Day’s logbook: date, location, action, miles covered, key terrain, etc. It is straight fact, as perceived by Roger. Still it is a fascinating read that details the ebb and flow of the contest with the French in Upstate New York, New England, and Lower Canada. I was particularly taken by the difficulties in getting reimbursed for expenses advanced and the politics of introducing, expanding, and preserving a new form of unit with new tactics. The willingness of British commanding generals to embrace the need for rangers and request Rogers to train the light companies of British Army line regiments to use these tactics was particularly reassuring and debunks the American myth of nothing but pipe clay and red coats on line in the wilderness. The details of the occupation of French positions after the surrender of French Canada was very enlightening as were the relationships with the formerly French Indians. Rogers’ Standing Orders for his Rangers are as applicable to patrolling and indeed all military operations today as they were in the forests of North America 250 years ago. The hardiness of these people is amazing and earns the reader’s deepest respect. It is a worthwhile read, but it is not THE LAST of the MOHICANS.Conflicting Loyalties (Navy Gray Book 1)
During the French and Indian War, or the American campaign of the Seven Years War, the British colonists fielded a small milita or partisan unit composed of woodsmen, hunters, farmers, and other men intimately familiar with life in the wilds of a sparsely populated country. Under the command of Robert Rogers, the author of these journals, they inflicted a series of small defeats on the French and their allies, and collected critical intelligence for the Royal and Colonial forces.The writing is not polished, but is a first hand account of the period. Rogers shares his account of what he saw of the war from 1756 to 1761, from New York, to Lake Champlain, and after the cessation of hostilities in the New World, on to Detroit. Rogers started as a volunteer with a team of four men under his command, and ended the war as a major by his account, but a lieutenant colonel according to other records in command of a battalion or larger; at one point, six companies with about 700 soldiers under his command. He was, by his own accounts, party to what would be considered to be wars crimes by today's standards, but still maintained higher standards than his adversaries (not saying much, as the French and their allies did not hesitate to kill non-combatants and children, which Rogers refrained from).It is interesting that at one point, Rogers was tasked with training soldiers from other units of the British and Provincial forces in his tactics and at the same time, Rogers was specificly directed to assess each of the trainees in skills and leadership potential, not unlike the U.S. Army Ranger Regiment's training battalion today. To this end, he codified his rules or plan of discipline, that captures the basics of light infantry combat tactics ever since (allowing that you might need to substitute the word "vehicle" for Roger's "canoes , bateaux, or otherwise"). These are not the contemporary and somewhat streamlined "Rangers Standing Orders", but the continuity is clear if you compare them.This is the origin story of the U.S. Army Rangers, an engaging bit of history, and well worth reading.E.M. Van Court
This narration of an underreported era of American history is just such an example. This is particularly true in the latter stages of this book where the author leads the reader from 1761 era Detroit to Albany, NY. The French & Indian War is over and the Americans, fighting with the British, must make their way home - useful as a diary but not compelling.That said, the first 80% of the book is quite fascinating. I had not known that Army Rangers had existed at that stage of US history, and their exploits foreshadowed the Rangers of today.This was very difficult combat, and not at all like the stereotypical scenes of Redcoats arrayed in linear formation, but more similar to the asymmetric strategies of modern military action.
It was a pleasure and inlighting experience to hear from a man from the earlier history of our country, in his own words, how he was involved in the history of our country's making. Being from Illinois, I have a French history in my state, that isn't well understood, and why it ended & why. It also brings the importance of the Native Americans to our formation as an English Speaking Nation. It also showed the English, in a better light, in the saving of many of many of our lives in cities as well as on the farms. But mostly it introduces you to the real Americans, who came from all over the Colonies, to form Ranger Companies, and the requirements to qualify to be a Ranger. And this is done by nonother than the leader, that founded the Rangers, and their tactics, Clothing Requirements, Arms requirements, who furnished them, and their Job discription. It also described the hardships that were demanded of them, and their loses, injuries, and heroism. These were everyday citizens that fought for the safety of their neighbors, families, and the chance to build a promisingly future for all of us. This was done with the collaboration of the English Government, American families, and Friendly Native Americans. It was also a window into the life of an American Hero, that was called a traitor, during the American Revolution. The 1650's were a lot more important time in our history, than was given time in our School System, to the founding of our Country. This book also gives us discription as to where this history actually took place! To enjoy History, one has to explore!
