Excerpt from History of the Battle of Point Pleasant: Fought Between White Men and Indians at the Mouth of the Great Kanawha River, (New Point Pleasant, West Virginia), Monday, October 10th, 1774; The Chief Event of Lord Dunmore's War I was born within a few miles of the battle-field of Point Pleas ant, the chief event of Lord Dunmore's War, and reared largely among the descendants of the men who participated in that strug gle. It was therefore but natural that even in my early years there was awakened an interest in the history not only of the battle itself, but of all that related to the participants therein - to all that con cerned the gallantry and achievements of the men of 1774. In my research I have sought to collect material from trust-worthy sour ces, because I have desired to give to this work the interest which every reader must have in a work treating of history. For this reason the only material used has been drawn from original sources, documents, and writings which were contemporaneous with the oc currence of the events described. Much error has been incorporated into the later writings regarding Dunmore's War. This is the result of a carelessness on the part of those, who without making research and investigation necessary to arrive at truth, seized rumors, tradi tions, and vague recollections, as sufficient authority upon which to base an assertion, and who substituted their own inferences for authenticated facts. These errors of statement have sometimes been repeated by considerate writers whose distrust was not excited; and this has increased the difficulties of pains-taking historians. But now, the publication of Thwaites and Kellogg's Documentary History of Dunmore's War the Revolution on the Upper Ohio, by the same authors; the printing by Virginia of the J our nals of the House of Burgesses Ford's reprint of the Journals of the Continental Congress and other sources of recent appearance, added to that which was previously available, has almost given to Dunmore's War a literature of its own. It is therefore, to be hoped that, hence forth, writers who heretofore, indulged in what may be termed thegossip of history, may no longer accept myths, legends and tradi tions as authority, and that they will thus cease to perpetuate the sr rors of statements long current, regarding Lord Dunmore' s War and its chief event - the battle of Point Pleasant.

Just six months prior to the onset of the American Revolution a major battle raged between colonial Virginians and the native Indians of western Virginia. This was the Battle of Point Pleasant fought on October 10, 1774. For various reasons, this battle has been recognized by some as the first battle of the American Revolution. However, evidence clearly shows that the Battle of Point Pleasant had no connection with the American Revolution. Rather, the Battle of Point Pleasant was the final battle of the American Colonial Wars. Though it was not a part of the Revolution, it was a critical event in American history that acted to open the settlement of the west and to free Colonial resources to ensure victory in the war for independence.
