Excerpt from Washington's Expeditions (1753-1754) And Braddock's Expedition (1755): With History of Tom Fausett, the Slayer of General Edward Braddock More than a century had elapsed after the discovery of this continent by the Cabots before the first English settle ment was established in America, and one hundred and forty years more had rolled away before settlements were at tempted west of the Allegheny moun tains. Thus for two hundred and fifty years after having gained possession by discovery had England been content to colonize only the American seaboard.

In 1755, Major General Edward Braddock and two army regiments set out from Alexandria with the objective of capturing Fort Duquesne, near present-day Pittsburgh. To transport their sizable train of artillery and wagons, they first had to build a road across the rugged Appalachian Mountains. It was almost 289 treacherous miles from Alexandria, Virginia, by way of Fort Cumberland in Maryland and on to the French fort; the road they built was one of the most impressive military engineering accomplishments of the eighteenth century. Historian Norman L. Baker chronicles the construction of the road and creates the definitive mapping of those sections once thought lost. Join Baker as he charts the history of Braddock's Road until the ultimate catastrophic collision with the combined French and Indian forces.
