"A useful work...recommended." - R.P. Gildrie (CHOICE) "Eames has added a valuable description of the nature of war that dominated New England for much of the century leading to 1775." - Richard I. Melvoin (American Journal of American History) "The book is made up of a superb introduction and eleven chapters...Eames has produced a book that makes a much-needed contribution to the 'new military history' (which blends social and military history) that will appeal to the motivated students of history who belong to Phi Alpha Theta." (The Historian) "An ambitious and well-researched attempt to understand anew the provincial soldier and the particular circumstances of war on the New England frontier." (H-Net Reviews) "Steven Eames renders a scholarly social history that challenges some views of the provincial soldier...[he] writes clearly, and his narrative is livened with numerous quotes from primary sources. We learn of the provincial soldier from his own words." (Post Library) "Rustic Warrior is an important contribution to the military history of colonial America." (American Historical Review)
