American Revolution: Writings from the War of Independence(ISBN=9781883011918) 下载 pdf 2025 网盘 epub 在线 mobi 免费

　　Drawn from letters, diaries, newspaper articles, public

declarations, contemporary narratives, and private memoranda,

The American Revolution brings together over 120 pieces by

more than 70 participants to create a unique literary panorama of

the War of Independence. From Paul Revere's own narrative of his

ride in April 1775 to an account of George Washington's resignation

from command of the Army in December 1783, the volume presents

firsthand all the major events of the conflict-the early battles of

Lexington, Concord, and Bunker Hill; the failed American invasion

of Canada; the battle of Saratoga; the fighting in the South and

along the western frontier; and the decisive triumph at

Yorktown.

Famous figures-Washington, Franklin, Jefferson, Benedict Arnold,

John and Abigail Adams-are here alongside lesser known participants

like Samuel Blachley Webb describing courage and panic at Bunker

Hill or Sarah Hodgkins writing longingly to her absent soldier

husband. American Loyalists and British officers and officials

serving in America provide provocative insights into the losing

side of an epochal conflict.

The American Revolution includes a chronology of events,

biographical and explanatory notes, and an index.
