Not illustrated. 1911 edition. Excerpt: ... Portage Path The Center Of Indian Communication Long before Lake Erie was located on the map of the world, or the La Belle Riviere known to the geographers of Europe, many decades before the Argonauts of civilization had penetrated westward beyond the St Lawrence, great aboriginal highways existed connecting the distant waters of the large lakes with the great salt sea, and with the mighty Mississippi, the father of all living rivers on the wild American continent. Journey with us to that distant, forest-clad land, and pass over with us some of these ancient trails that push their winding, tortuous way by the banks of sedgy lakes, across wide and swift rivers, or else following the early conformation of the shore line of the immense fresh water lakes, or striking out into the heart of the wilderness for hundreds of miles, turning, twisting but: ever moving forward to a known objective point without loss of time. These were the highways of that restless, adventurous, migratory race or races which held tha country by virtue of original possession. Along these routes they came with swift and tireless feet, bent, either upon the delights of the chase, or upon the much-to-be-desired war of the race. W ar brought distinction, made mighty chiefs, furnished an exercise for their naturally cruel instincts, brought plunder and pelf and profit; abounded in change of scene, exciting episodes and startling features. Its climaxes were not always pleasant or desirable, but they were accepted with the stoic philosophy of the red man as the fortune of war. Along these lengthening trails came and went these feather-bedecked, sinister-painted, wild men of the forest. Swiftly, surely, without noise or bluster, these hyenas of the wilderness sped on their...

The Strait of Niagara, or the Niagara River, as it is commonly called, ranks among the wonders of the world. The study of this stream is of intense and special interest to many classes of people, notably historians, archæologists, botanists, geologists, artists, mechanics, and electricians. It is doubtful if there is anywhere another thirty-six miles of riverway that can, in this respect, compare with it. The term "strait" as applied to the Niagara correctly suggests the river's historic importance. The expression, recurring in so many of the relations of French and English military officers, "on this communication" also indicates Niagara's position in the story of the discovery, conquest, and occupation of the continent. It is probably the Falls which, technically, make Niagara a river; and so, in turn, it is the Falls that rendered Niagara an important strategic key of the vast waterway stretching from the mouth of the St. Lawrence to the head of Lake Superior. The lack—so far as it does exist—of historic interest in the immediate Niagara region, the comparative paucity of military events of magnitude along that stream during the old French and the Revolutionary wars proves, on the one hand, what a wilderness separated the English on the South from the French on the North, and, on the other, how strong "the communication" was between Quebec and the French posts in the Middle West. It does not prove that Niagara was the less important.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

A series of monographs on the History of America as portrayed in the evolution of its Highways of War, Commerce, and Social Expansion. Comprising the following volumes: Paths of the Mound-Building Indians and Great Game Animals. Indian Thoroughfares. Washington's Road: The First Chapter of the Old French War. Braddock's Road. The Old Glade (Forbes's) Road. Boone's Wilderness Road. Portage Paths: The Keys of the Continent. Military Roads of the Mississippi Basin. Waterways of Westward Expansion. The Cumberland Road. Pioneer Roads of America (two volumes). The Great American Canals (two volumes). The Future of Road-Making in America. The little portage pathways which connected the heads of our rivers and lakes or offered the voyageur a thoroughfare around the cataracts and rapids of our rivers were, as the subtitle of this volume suggests, the " Keys of the Continent " two centuries or so ago. The forts, chapels, trading stations, treaty houses, council fires, boundary stones, camp grounds, and villages located at these strategic points all prove this. The study of these routes brings one at once face to face with old-time problems from a point of view almost never otherwise gained. The newness and value of reviewing historic movements from the standpoint of highways is strikingly emphasized in the case of portage paths. While studying them, one seems to rise on heights of ground like those these pathways spanned — and from that altitude, gazing backward, to get a better perspective of the military and social movements which made these little roads historic.
