Early settlers made useable products from raw materials. Besides trading with Indians, making their own things was their only option. Except for the fact that the Indians were not happy to see the settlers moving into their lands. Early fur traders were successful in trading with Indians because they did not settle and build homes and farms. Settlers were viewed as unwelcome so not much trade occurred. Also, travel was difficult so there were not very many resources imported from the east or ordered from catalogues. The correct answer is making their own products from the raw materials that were available to them.
Bad, like bad bad. the soldiers were not all soldiers, most of them were tradesmen: blacksmiths, carpenters, farmer, etc. These “soldiers” were not prepared for what happened. The soldiers went through their rations quickly and ate a mixture of flour and water to survive. The sanitary conditions of the camp were terrible because they were nit knowledgeable to put the latrine, the hole they peed, pooped, and threw-up in, far enough away from the camp so that no one got sick. Also it was winter in Pennsylvania, so it was freezing and snowing. The quarters of soldiers were cloths draped over sticks until the cabins were built later. And all of the previous was the conditions of those who were not injured or dying. Those who were injured were having body parts sawed off with woodworking saws without and pain relieving medication, except alcohol. They felt all of it. In conclusion, the soldier were cold, tired, starved, weak, and in some cases crippled. Those who had died early were considered lucky.
