Book Description
Excerpt from General Persifor Frazer: A Memoir Compiled Principally From His Own Papers by His Great-Grandson The head of this profile (see frontispiece) is not as satisfactory as a very ordinary portrait or crayon sketch would have been, but I am thank ful to have even this. The present collection of papers, relevant and irrelevant, makes no pre tence to consideration as a biography. It was undertaken from a sense of duty to the subject, to preserve the records of the gradually disintegrating papers so that some one in the future, by their aid, might write a biography of General Frazer which would be worthy of him. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work. Forgotten Books uses state-of-the-art technology to digitally reconstruct the work, preserving the original format whilst repairing imperfections present in the aged copy.

The Armstrong Brothers
Author: David O. Smith
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1664159061
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 722
Book Description
This is the story of James, John, and Hamilton Armstrong, three sons of a yeoman farmer living on the Pennsylvania frontier at the outset of the American Revolution. James and John joined the Continental Army in 1776, rose from the ranks to become officers, and served until the army was disbanded in 1783. Hamilton remained home to work the farm, protect the family, and serve in militia and “ranger” units to defend the frontier from repeated attacks from hostile Indian tribes. Their combined wartime experiences encompassed almost the totality of the American Revolution, from Canada in the north to South Carolina in the south and along the western frontier. James and John fought in most of the major battles of the revolution, including Princeton, Brandywine, Germantown, Monmouth, Guilford Courthouse, Eutaw Springs, and Yorktown, where they distinguished themselves in the eyes of generals like the Marquis de Lafayette, Mad Anthony Wayne, Light- Horse Harry Lee, Nathanael Greene, and George Washington.

The Philadelphia Campaign
Author: Thomas J. McGuire
Publisher: Stackpole Books
ISBN: 0811741265
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 422
Book Description
This is the first in a monumental two-volume set on the pivotal 1777 campaign of the American Revolution. • An in-depth examination of the military engagements that resulted in the British capture of Philadelphia. • The compelling account of the fight for the Continental capital, based on surviving accounts of soldiers and civilians "The Philadelphia Campaign is first-rate, an absorbing work of tenacious research and close scholarship. Thomas J. McGuire knows the time of the American Revolution and has been over the ground in and about Philadelphia in a way few writers ever have. But it is his empathy for the human reality of war and the great variety of people caught up in it, whether in the service of the king or the Glorious Cause of America, that makes this book especially alive and memorable." --David McCullough, author of John Adams and 1776
