Maryland in the French & Indian War, Maryland, Military, Paperback \"It is true, Maryland did not . . . contribute its proportion, but it was, in my opinion, the fault of the Government, and not of the people.\" ~Benjamin Franklin During the French and Indian War the American colonies contributed to the imperial war effort like never before, Maryland included. Maryland\'s involvement in the war saw colonial governor Horatio Sharpe and the elected delegates of the Lower House in near constant struggle over Maryland\'s role. They battled over the deployment of Maryland\'s militia, over raising troops, and over wartime funding. Meanwhile, frontier settlements burned and Maryland\'s soldiers joined the effort to defend Great Britain\'s claims to lands west of the Appalachians. Britain\'s colonies in North America expanded substantially as a result. Local historian Tim Ware details the political as well as the military conflicts Maryland faced in this unique war.
