The second section covers the colonial period, including the French and Indian War and the American Revolution. Hough provides a detailed account of the battles and skirmishes that took place in the region, as well as the role that St. Lawrence and Franklin Counties played in the founding of the United States. The third section covers the period of westward expansion and industrialization in the 19th century. Hough describes the growth of towns and cities in the region, the development of transportation networks, and the establishment of industries such as farming, logging, and mining. The final section covers the modern era, including the impact of World War I and II on the region, the growth of tourism, and the social and economic changes that have taken place in St. Lawrence and Franklin Counties in recent years.
