Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sword of Brigadier-General Richard Montgomery: A Memoir One by one our old living landmarks are disap pearing from our midst, and this morning we have to record the death of our respected friend, Deputy commissary-general Thompson. Of late we had miss ed him from his familiar walks, and on enquiry we regretted to learn that he had for some weeks been confined to his chamber, and that his memory, which had been hitherto wonderfully clearin connexion with the events of the olden time, had completely failed him; from this we augured that the end was near; and though we heard it with regret, we were not sur prised when, yesterday evening, we received notice of his death.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chronicles the life and military of a neglected hero of the American Revolution—General Richard Montgomery "Brave, humane, and generous . . . still he was only a brave, humane, and generous rebel; curse on his virtues, they've undone this country."—Member of British Parliament Lord North, upon hearing of General Richard Montgomery's death in battle against the British At 3 a.m. on December 31, 1775, a band of desperate men stumbled through a raging Canadian blizzard toward Quebec. The doggedness of this ragtag militia—consisting largely of men whose short-term enlistments were to expire within the next 24 hours—was due to the exhortations of their leader. Arriving at Quebec before dawn, the troop stormed two unmanned barriers, only to be met by a British ambush at the third. Amid a withering hale of cannon grapeshot, the patriot leader, at the forefront of the assault, crumpled to the ground. General Richard Montgomery was dead at the age of 37. Montgomery—who captured St. John and Montreal in the same fortnight in 1775; who, upon his death, was eulogized in British Parliament by Burke, Chatham, and Barr; and after whom 16 American counties have been named—has, to date, been a neglected hero. Written in engaging, accessible prose, General Richard Montgomery and the American Revolution chronicles Montgomery's life and military career, definitively correcting this historical oversight once and for all.
