Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Loyalty and Devotion of Colored Americans in the Revolution and War of 1812 Of the services and sufferings of the colored soldiers of the Revolution, ' says one writer, 'no attempt has, to our knowledge, been made to preserve a record.' This is mainly true. Their history is not written. It lies upon the soil Watered with their blood: who shall gather it? It rests with their bones in the charnel-house: who shall exhume it 7 Their bodies, wrapped ln sacks, have dropped from the decks where trod a Decatur and a Barry, m a calm and silence broken only by the voice of the man of God We commit this body to the deep and the plunge and the ripples passing, the sea has closed over their memory forever. Ah! We have waited on shore and have seen the circle of that ripple. We know, at least, where they went down; and so much, to-day, we come to record. We have had in Ohio, until very recently, and if they are living, have here now, a few colored men who have thus connected us with the past. I have been told of one, recent ly, in the southern portion of the State. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

By WM. C. NELL. WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY HARRIET BEECHER STOWE. (c)1855. THE NARRATIVE OF JAMES ROBERTS, A SOLDIER UNDER GEN. WASHINGTON IN THE REVOLUTIONARY WAR, AND UNDER GEN. JACKSON AT THE BATTLE OF NEW ORLEANS, IN THE WAR OF 1812: "A BATTLE WHICH COST ME A LIMB, SOME BLOOD, AND ALMOST MY LIFE." by JAMES ROBERTS (c) 1858. ________________________________________ THE colored race have been generally considered by their enemies, and sometimes even by their friends, as deficient in energy and courage. Their virtues have been supposed to be principally negative ones. This little collection of interesting incidents, made by a colored man, will redeem the character of the race from this misconception, and show how much injustice there may often be in a generally admitted idea. In considering the services of the Colored Patriots of the Revolution, we are to reflect upon them as far more magnanimous, because rendered to a nation which did not acknowledge them as citizens and equals, and in whose interests and prosperity they had less at stake. It was not for their own land they fought, not even for a land which had adopted them, but for a land which had enslaved them, and whose laws, even in freedom, oftener oppressed than protected. Bravery, under such circumstances, has a peculiar beauty and merit. "THE COLORED PATRIOTS OF THE AMERICAN."
