Ben Franklin's World 056 The Anglo-Cherokee War, 1759-1761
Between 1754 and 1763, North Americans participated in the French and Indian War; a world war Europeans call the Seven Years’ War.
As this world war raged, many South Carolinians, Virginians, Britons, and Cherokee people also fought a war for land, trade, and respect.
Today, we explore the Anglo-Cherokee War with Daniel Tortora, author of Carolina in Crisis: Cherokees, Colonists, and Slaves in the American Southeast.
