Book Description
Excerpt from The Town of Roxbury: Its Memorable Persons and Places, Its History and Antiquities, With Numerous Illustrations of Its Old Landmarks and Noted Personages Roxbury was appropriately so named from its most prominent natural characteristic; and no one who venerates its founders, or who cherishes a proper regard for the preservation of its historical or ancestral memories, should ever consent to substitute for it a name no more applicable to it than to many other localities now in cluded within the city limits. To do so is no less a blunder in taste than in fact. The great city of London, while gradually absorbing adjoining localities, religiously preserves their ancient names. Are ours less dear to us? Let us, then, while a single rock remains above its surface, cling to the good old name of roxbury, scotched, not killed, by the temporary substitution for it of the unacceptable misnomer of Boston Highlands.

The Revolutionary War Memoirs of Major General William Heath
Author: William Heath
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 0786478810
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 244
Book Description
First published in 1798, this Revolutionary War memoir is one of the few ever written by a senior Continental Army commander. It provides a unique glimpse into the administrative operations and inner workings of the army during the American Revolution. Major General William Heath offers rare insights on the war's major military personalities on both the American and British sides. Of particular interest are his wartime interactions with British generals John Burgoyne and William Phillips, as well as Continental Army generals such as George Washington and Charles Lee. Heath's memoir also gives readers a detailed look at the constant struggles faced by the army, including food, supply, personnel and funding shortages, and presents an almost daily chronicle of the tribulations and successes experienced by patriot forces during the war.
