The photo below sent me to scanning my 1923 copy of The Deerslayer which has surprisingly modern-looking though archaic (if that doesn't make sense - I mean they look like 1950s rather than 1890s or modern) illustrations by H M Brock. The caption of this is 'A general yell burst from the enclosed Hurons, succeeded by the hearty cheers of England'.
American warfare 1690-1835 in popular culture, art, in miniature and in wargames, through Living History and in movies.
