Frontier Soldiers of New France Volume 2 explores the evolution of the French colonial troops’ campaign attire and equipment adapted for North America’s demanding climate and terrain, integrating European military methods with practical adjustments for wilderness warfare. A comprehensive look at how French colonial troops in New France adapted their clothing, arms, and tactics for wilderness warfare between 1683 and 1760. It focuses on the material culture of the Compagnies franches de la Marine in New France from 1683 to 1760, examining their specific campaign clothing, arms, and equipment. The study highlights their adaptation to the local environment and interactions with Native American cultures, including the adoption of items such as breechcloths, leggings, toboggans, snowshoes, moccasins, scalping knives and tomahawks.
