Product Description
David Starbuck and his colleagues have been excavating British military sites in Fort Edward and Lake George, New York, for two decades. This region housed the largest British forts and encampments of the French and Indian War (1754-1763), with as many as 16,000 soldiers and officers garrisoned there. In 1996, on the east bank of the Hudson River, Starbuck's team unearthed the remarkable remains of a sutlers' (or merchants') house which had supplied goods to the British armies throughout the late 1750s. Because no eighteenth-century sutling house had ever before been professionally excavated, this site offered an amazing opportunity for research and discovery.

This beautifully illustrated volume focuses on the rich and varied material culture brought to this region by the British armies and their suppliers, including representative artifacts found at Rogers Island, Fort Edward, Fort William Henry, and the Lake George Battlefield Park.

Organized around material themes such as weaponry and ammunition, food and foodways, and tools and equipment, Excavating the Sutlers' House provides a fascinating overview of artifacts from the French and Indian War to the American Revolution. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars French & Indian War historians and reenactors will like this
The Lake George area in the eastern Adirondacks was one of the prime focuses of the conflict between English America and New France, 250 years ago. Several forts were built by the English either on that lake, or nearby to the south. The author reviews the history and archaeology of the area, then describes the results of archaeological excavations at Lake George and at Fort Edward, a few miles away on the upper Hudson River. Specifically, he emphasizes artifacts discovered during the 2001-2009 dig at a sutlers' house (merchants' building) next to Fort Edward. The structure was destroyed by fire, probably in 1759. This is the first building of its kind to be studied.

The author has academic credentials enough (Associate Professor of Anthropology and Sociology at Plymouth State University in New Hampshire). However, if you expect a dry tome filled with line drawings and obscure references to other academics' dissertations, you will be pleasantly surprised. There are some of those, as required in a work of this kind. However, for the most part the illustrations are high quality color photographs of artifacts and the dig. Interspersed with those there are also a few pictures of people involved in the dig, and reenactors portraying activities of the era.

I bought this book because I am a French & Indian War reenactor myself. I take the hobby seriously; an ancestor died in service as a Massachusetts Provincial in 1756, at Fort William Henry on Lake George. I was not disappointed by this book, and if your interests are similar to mine, you will be equally impressed.
