Arnold; A Letter of Sir Henry Pigot, the English Commander; A German Account of the Battle; The Views of General LafayetteThe second of December, 177 6, was a dark day for Rhode Island. It was the prelude to a mili tary occupation by an overwhelming hostile force which for nearly three years was to hold the Island, the strategic key to Southern New England, and to spread terror and destruction over a wide extent of country. This occupation of the island was not to cease till a desperate battle had bathed in blood its fairest fields, and the best fought action of the war had proved to a long defiant fee that the entrench ments of Newport were no longer secure. On that day a squadron of eleven ships of war, - seven line of battle ships and four frigates - under Sir Peter Parker, appeared off Block Island; and the next day sailed up the Sound to convey a fleet of seventy10 historical tract.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book They Fought Bravely but Were Unfortunate written by Daniel M. Popek and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2015-11-05 with total page 1029 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rhode Island’s “Black Regiment” of the American Revolutionary War is fairly well-known to students of American History. Most published histories of the small colored battalion from Rhode Island are clearly biased in favor of the “regiment” and tend to interpret it as an elite military unit. However, a detailed study and analysis of Rhode Island’s segregated Continental Line by the author reveals a “military experiment” that was beset with difficulties from its start and ultimately failed as a segregated unit in 1780. In this work, many of the popular stories of Rhode Island’s “Black Regiment” are proven to be myths. Follow the accurate historical stories of the colored and white soldiers of Rhode Island’s Continental Line whose courage and sacrifices helped create an independent nation.
