This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memorial of the Centennial Celebration of the Battle of Paulus Hook, August 19, 1879: With a History of the Early Settlement and Present Condition of Jersey City, N. J The Committee desire to express their obligations to Hon. Charles H. Winfield for a number of the plates used in this work, and also to the many business firms for their uniform courtesy and kindness in giving information and illustrations of their manufactories. The map of Paulus Hook in 1779, portraits of Major Henry Lee, Lord Stirling, lion. Dudley S. Gregory and Hon. Henry J. Hopper were made expressly for this publication; the illustrations of the procession and the meeting in the Tabernacle were used (after having been reduced in size) by permission of the publishers of The Graphic, in which paper they appeared on August 20th, 1879. The statistics given are from official sources. It was the wish of many citizens that the part relating to Jersey City should be made more comprehensive, but the committee felt that it was not their province to enlarge upon what must be the labor of some future historian. The manufactories have been selected solely with a view to exhibit the rapid growth of the city, and while many more establishments could with propriety have been added, it was not thought to be necessary or desirable, sufficient being given to illustrate the vast interests which centre here, and which have contributed in a few years - within the memory of many of its inhabitants - to transform the sand-hills and marshes of Paulns Hook into a large commercial and manufacturing emporium, which must soon become the Metropolis of the State.

Book George Washington and the Final British Campaign for the Hudson River  1779

Download or read book George Washington and the Final British Campaign for the Hudson River 1779 written by Michael Schellhammer and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-01-10 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the summer of 1779, British general Sir Henry Clinton launched one last attempt to gain control of the Hudson River, the most strategically important waterway during the American Revolution. The campaign involved all of George Washington's main Continental Army and most of the forces around New York City under Clinton's command, but ended without a major battle. Still, the summer saw plenty of action. American cavalry sparred with their British counterparts in eastern New York; thousands of militiamen resisted brutal British raids along the Connecticut coast; and Washington stunned the British with daring night bayonet attacks on the fortified posts of Stony Point and Paulus Hook. This study details the strategy, tactics, officers, soldiers, and spies that shaped this critical campaign, which helped set the stage for America's final victory in the Revolution.

  • Release : 2022
  • ISBN : 0190249633
  • Pages : 529 pages

Download or read book Hessians written by Friederike Baer and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1776 and 1783, Britain hired an estimated 30,000 German soldiers to fight in its war against the Americans. Collectively known as Hessians, they actually came from six German territories within the Holy Roman Empire. Over the course of the war, members of the German corps, including women and children, spent extended periods of time in locations as dispersed and varied as Canada in the North to West Florida and Cuba in the South. They shared in every significant British military triumph and defeat. Thousands died of disease, were killed in battle, were captured by the enemy, or deserted. Collectively, they recorded their experiences and observations of the war they fought in, the land they traversed, and the people they encountered in a large body of letters, diaries, and similar private and official records. Friederike Baer presents a study of Britain's war against the American rebels from the perspective of the German soldiers, a people uniquely positioned both in the midst of the war and at its margins. The book offers a ground-breaking reimagining of this watershed event in world history.
