Lonny, would this be the book you remember?  (Library of Congress
record data below.)

If not, if you use the Basic Search page of the Library of Congress
catalog (http://catalog.loc.gov), and do a "Command Keyword" search on
the following string--

forts AND "french and indian"

--you should find a couple of other titles that might fit the bill.

Best--
