Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Boston Merchant of 1745: Or Incidents in the Life of James Gibson, a Gentleman Volunteer at the Expedition to Louisburg, Journal of That Siege, Never Before Published in This Country by One of His Descendants This siege continued forty-eight days, and was carried on by undisciplined colonists against a well-trained army, and a fortification strouger than almost any in the world. Of the events of this siege, in which our army gamed a glorious triumph, Mr. Gibson kept a regular Journal, which was published afterward at London, and a copy presented to King George. A notice of this Journal appeared in a contemporary number of the "Gentleman's Magazine," a periodical which has been continued for upward of 200 years. This Journal has never been reprinted in America. After searching through the principal libraries of New England, we are certain that few persons have ever seen it in this country. We have learned of late that societies are seeking to obtain mere extended information respecting this expedition, and therefore give this Journal entire to our readers.

Download or read book Seeds of Discontent written by J. Revell Carr and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2010-07-23 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Popularly, the causes of the American Revolution are considered the Stamp Act and other repressive actions by the Crown against its colonies in the years following the French & Indian War. Some see the sources in the outcome of that war, when George III forbade settlement beyond the Alleghenies. J. Revell Carr takes a longer view, and in Seeds of Discontent, he locates the roots of the Revolution a century earlier. In the latter half of the 17th century, tensions between colonists and the Crown were strikingly similar, culminating in the Revolution of 1689. Though subsequent decades were relatively peaceful, the bitterness was not forgotten, and friction began to build throughout the 1720s and 30s, reaching a peak after the famed 1745 battle for Louisbourg, the seemingly impregnable French fortress in Nova Scotia. Won on England's behalf at great cost to the largely American-born strike force, it was given back to France two years later in return for French concessions in the Caribbean-an act that outraged politicians, citizens, and soldiers alike. Bringing to life the two generations that inspired our Founding Fathers, Revell Carr illuminates an eventful century largely ignored by historians.
