Description

Drums along the Mohawk, Walter D. Edmonds' masterpiece, is not only the best historical novel about upstate New York since James Fenimore Cooper, it was also number one on the bestseller list for two years, only yielding to the epic Gone with the Wind. This is the story of the forgotten pioneers of the Mohawk Valley during the Revolutionary War. Here Gilbert Martin and his young wife struggled and lived and hoped. Combating hardships almost too great to endure, they helped give to America a legend that still stirs the heart. In the midst of love and hate, life and death, danger and disaster, they stuck to the acres that were theirs and fought a war without ever quite understanding it. Drums along the Mohawk has been an American classic since its original publication in 1936. Read more

    • Good read. Fine hardcover book
Format: Leather Bound
Great book in excellent condition. This is a great historical novel. Unlike most historical books, this is written from the perspective of common folks, not the famous historical figures.

    • Convincing historical fiction
Format: Kindle
Most probably know this story not from the book, which was a 1936 best-seller, but rather from the 1939 John Ford classic film based upon it. I have not seen the film, so I will comment here only on the novel itself. If you have an interest in colonial American history or enjoy the novels of James Fenimore Cooper, then you will probably enjoy this novel as well. Richly detailed, the story is set in the Mohawk valley in northern New York State during the American Revolutionary War. This was the major east-west artery then and now, connecting the Hudson River valley and Albany to the western portions of the state (the New York Thruway I-90 of today cuts right through the settlements in the story). The author gives a great sense of setting with lots of details about the routines of the isolated settlers of that era. While the characters are not especially complex, the prejudices and tensions between Dutch and Germans, Tories and Continentals, is nicely realized. Real historical figures like Herkimer and the Johnson family appear in supporting roles. Perhaps not surprising for the time it was written, both blacks and Native Americans are largely depicted negatively, with some offensive caricatures in both dialog and character. The action sequences are fairly compelling, although the descriptions of battle are a bit murky and abstract at times. Overall, this is an entertaining read, especially if you have interest in the history of the area. ... show more

    • An easy and enjoyable read…
If you like ‘The Way West,’ ‘The Big Sky,’ ‘Lonesome Dove,’ or ‘True Grit,’ then there’s a pretty good chance that you’ll like DATM. Set in NY state’s Mohawk Valley, it’s a gritty and very human take on the colonists fighting the Crown and its allies for independence.

    • Good ol' days...
Good to read a book about the area I was born in, its history and familiar names of families I grew up with! Language & wording however, hints of the 1930's rather than actual historical time period.

    • One of America's great books
Format: Kindle
This book held me right to the last word. I pride myself as a bit of a history geek, this story really fleshed out the struggle of those war years so hard on everyone, and it took a tragic toll on the Native American tribes.

    • Way better than the movie.....
Format: Kindle
Historically, this book is right on. I never like reading about battles and military strategy, but I have a feeling the accounts are historically accurate to a detail. Some of the language is even archaic enough that I had to use my dictionary, and some of the words weren't in the dictionary at all. The story line is not the best element of the book, but the life of the sometime soldier/sometime pioneer farmers and their wives is what kept me reading. The depiction of the Indians of this area and time would be nothing short of politically incorrect, but probably accurate? The eloquent descriptions of revolutionary, wild New York state countryside, survival in the wilderness, and early pioneer farm life are the best thing about it. Aside from skimming the battle discussions, I really enjoyed this book. ... show more

    • An Upstate New Yorkers Must Read
Format: Kindle
A gripping tale, an unvarnished look at frontier life, overlayed by the war of our nations founding. Centered in way-upstate NY, think Herkimer, Rome, Utica - where local militias defended defended their settler ranks from the British and allied Indians. The community we follow remained under duress even after the Sullivan Expedition wiped out most organized resistance - there were old scores to settle. History brought to life - warts and all. ... show more

    • This book should be in print again!
Walter Edmonds wrote a marvelous story of the upper New York State pioneers and patriots who helped win our country. John Ford's film rendition is great ... but it's still Hollywood. There is much depth and sinew in Edmonds' novel that was compressed or omitted altogether in the movie, and the story is much better told here. Unfortunately, the book isn't currently in print and I was fortunate to come across this copy. BTW, this bookseller is great! My copy was in advertised condition and arrived earlier than expected -- would definitely recommend them! ... show more
