Excerpt: ... vigilant eye, and of course they soon became disordered and embarrassed; his tenants neglected to pay their rents, and his land was running waste for want of proper attention. It was impossible that he could be ignorant of the ruin which threatened him; yet he remained obstinately blind and inactive, till compelled to awaken from his lethargy, by the numerous demands of creditors, who had been put off from time to time, till their patience was exhausted, and they would be trifled with no longer. Mr. Spencer, forced by their importunity to examine his affairs, found that, during the year which he had suffered to pass in idleness and inaction, debts had accumulated and expenses had been incurred, of which he knew nothing; and he found it impossible to defray them without mortgaging his estate, which, small as it was, he had wished to bequeath unincumbered to his daughter. But flattering himself that he might be able to redeem it for her, or that, if not, she would scarcely need so trifling a bequest, since she would doubtless be the heiress of the wealthy relative who had adopted her, he gave a mortgage to the guardians of a Mr. Dalkeith, a youth then under age, who was the owner of a fine estate adjoining. Having satisfied the demands of his creditors, and dismissed the dishonest steward, who had so prodigally squandered and abused his property, he placed his affairs in the hands of a man whose probity was well known to him, and whom he could safely trust. That home, which the endearments of happy love had made so delightful to him, was now become more dreary than a desert; and his most anxious wish was to escape from scenes, where every object reminded him of joys which were never more to return. He, therefore, quitted Ireland, and...

Download or read book The Compleat Victory written by Kevin J. Weddle and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021-01-15 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late summer and fall of 1777, after two years of indecisive fighting on both sides, the outcome of the American War of Independence hung in the balance. Having successfully expelled the Americans from Canada in 1776, the British were determined to end the rebellion the following year and devised what they believed a war-winning strategy, sending General John Burgoyne south to rout the Americans and take Albany. When British forces captured Fort Ticonderoga with unexpected ease in July of 1777, it looked as if it was a matter of time before they would break the rebellion in the North. Less than three and a half months later, however, a combination of the Continental Army and Militia forces, commanded by Major General Horatio Gates and inspired by the heroics of Benedict Arnold, forced Burgoyne to surrender his entire army. The American victory stunned the world and changed the course of the war. Kevin J. Weddle offers the most authoritative history of the Battle of Saratoga to date, explaining with verve and clarity why events unfolded the way they did. In the end, British plans were undone by a combination of distance, geography, logistics, and an underestimation of American leadership and fighting ability. Taking Ticonderoga had misled Burgoyne and his army into thinking victory was assured. Saratoga, which began as a British foraging expedition, turned into a rout. The outcome forced the British to rethink their strategy, inflamed public opinion in England against the war, boosted Patriot morale, and, perhaps most critical of all, led directly to the Franco-American alliance. Weddle unravels the web of contingencies and the play of personalities that ultimately led to what one American general called "the Compleat Victory."
