about

The French and Indian War of the 1750s determined the fate of North America: France lost its colonies and North America became British, but at the same time, the war laid the foundation for the British colonists to start thinking of themselves as Americans. The spark that ignited the war was the struggle to control the Forks of the Ohio, present-day Pittsburgh. Blood on the Moon is the epic tale of the multi-year struggle to control this key location, the key to the entire Ohio River territory.

Although you can purchase individual tracks, this is really one continuous story and is best listen as such.
