Pontiac's War Against The British: Colonies To Colossus #37

This is #37 in a series about Colonial American History. It focuses on Pontiac's War rebellion against the British, how the war expanded into the back country, British Campaigns to stop the violence, Pontiac's assassination by other Indians and the changes in British policy to stop friction with the Indians--the Proclamation Line of 1763.

I see Pontiac's Rebellion as the first north American War of independence from the British. It led to the Royal Proclamation of 1763, the Treaty of Niagara 1764 ,The Covenant Chain Wampum presented by Sir William Johnson at the conclusion of the Council of Niagara. Those promises were broken

Great points. Had the British continued the trade and gifting policies of the French do you think the rebellion would have happened--and if the answer is 'no' was it really a war of independence or of dependence?
