With Musket and Tomahawk: Volume II - The Mohawk Valley Campaign in the Wilderness War of 1777

"Using colorful storytelling techniques, Logusz captures the personalities of those individuals who played a pivotal role in the outcome of the Mohawk Valley Campaign...breathes dramatic life into a depiction of the long standing alliances and rivalries that fueled Patriot and Loyalist causes in the region, while describing how neighbors, families, friends and foes were caught up in Burgoyne's doomed play."—Toy Soldier and Model Figure

"Logusz does an excellent job outlining the Battle of Oriskany, where an initial Patriot relief force coming to the aid of Fort Stanwix was ambushed and almost wiped out...fascinating, well documented, and occasionally thought provoking.”—The Journal of America’s Military Past
