Book question

Here's a quick question for you all. I've been reading Wargames Illustrated recently and realised that there are so many periods of history I know nothing about. Watching the Bloggers for Charity project progress, I felt it was about time I actually knew something about the period, but the Osprey book is currently out of print and they havn't released it as a digital version yet. Can anyone recommend a good book on the French-Indian war please?

  2. I enjoyed the Crucible of War, by Fred Anderson a lot.

  5. Another place to look is books.google.com. There are great books there that are absolutely free. They are all older books but that is not necessarily a bad thing.
