This book was released on 2018-03-22 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Frederick William Von Steuben and the American Revolution Some space is given to the efforts of Beaumarchais in behalf of American independence, not only because be furnished the means which enabled Steuben to come to America, but because his activities have been largely a sealed book to American readers, the historians generally dismissing the subject with a line. A publication in the fifties entitled Beaumarchais and His Times, wherein Original documents are first published, demonstrates that this curious character exercised more influence on French politics than has been generally been supposed, but al though this book was translated into English it is now rare and out of print.
