This book was released on 2018-01-29 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The First Campaign of the Second Rhode Island Infantry A few years since, it occurred to some of the comrades re siding in this city, who served in the United States Army and Navy during the war of the rebellion, to form themselves into an association under the name of the Rhode Island Soldiers and Sailors Historical Society, for the purpose of collecting, as far as they were able, documents concerning the civil war, and of putting on record some of the unwritten history of that contest, in the hope that their labors might, perhaps, be of value to the future historian. As a part of the means to this end, these comrades have, from time to time, written and read before the Society papers treating of their own experiences and recol lections of notable events as they saw them. In the belief that these papers Will be pleasant reading for all who were inter ested in the great conflict, and contain many facts of historical value, as well as tend to keep alive memories of patriotism, bravery and self-sacrifice. It is proposed to publish them in a series of pamphlets uniform in size and style for preserva tion. The initial number, The Campaign of the Second Rhode Island Infantry by Colonel Rhodes, is here presented. It was read before the Society, November 3rd, 1875, and was the first one of the series. Others are in preparation and will speedily follow. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rhode Island in the Colonial Wars: A List of Rhode Island Soldiers Sailors, in the Old French Indian War, 1755-1762 The conflict of French and English interests in the Ohio Valley served as the prelude, and Washington's defeat of Jumonville near Fort Du Quesne on May 27th 1754 as the spark, which ignited the fourth French war in which Rhode Island participated. This struggle called by European his torians The Seven Years War is better known in America as The Old French and Indian War. Military preparations were made in both England and France as well as in the Colonies. On January Ist 1755 the Rhode Island: General Assembly voted to raise a company of 100 men for the emergency. As is usual, the length and intensity of the impending struggle was underestimated. In February the number was increased to 113, apparently to allow for officers, some of whom were appointed. A committee of War of five men was established to manage the military affairs of the Colony, In March 1755, before the 106 men had been enlisted, it was voted to raise four companies of 100 men each to take part in the secret expedition against Crown Point. The acts calling for 113 men were repealed and the officers transferred to the new companies. Christopher Harris was appointed Colonel of this expeditionary regiment.
