Show Notes
In the summer and fall of 1782, two expeditions of Butler's Rangers, supported by large numbers of Indian warriors attack American outposts in Kentucky and West Virginia. Daniel Boone in Kentucky and Ebenezer Zane in West Virginia fight desperately to fend off these attacks. George Rogers Clark leads a counter offensive into the Ohio territory. He expects support from the Continentals at for Pitt, but that support never arrives.
