Book excerpt: Excerpt from Valley Forge Historical Research Report The Valley Forge Historical Research Project and Report is the product of many minds. It was conceived in 1976 by the late Charles Funnell, historian for the mid-atlantic Region of the National Park Service, together with John Bond, Regional Historian, and Dr. S. Sydney Bradford, Associate Director for Planning and Resource Preservation. The burden of sustaining the project through to completion during the ensuing three years was assumed with grace and forbearance by H. Gilbert Lusk, Superintendent of Valley Forge National Historical Park, and Valley Forge Chief of Interpretation W. Eugene Cox. The project was launched in August of 1977, employing five research historians to gather photocopies of period documents from over two hundred archives in the United States, England, and France. The success of the project was in large part attributable to the thoroughness of their investigations. The three historians engaged in the project for this collection phase, and whose efforts were so essential to the project, were Michael Lawson, David Rich, and Harry Roach.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Valley Forge Revisited A stone slab at Fort Huntington marks the grave of an American soldier killed by a neighbor ing had complained to General Wayne of the depredation of the soldiers and had been told impatiently to shoot them if they trespassed again. The army lost, says Dr. Benjamin Rusk, 1500 head of horses for want of forage. A week's rations for a soldier were three ounces of meat and three pounds of flour. Rations were sometimestwo days overdue when issued. Men were left 24 hours on picket. There was not money enough in February to pay the November roll in full. General Wavne said that Falstaff's company was comparatively well clad, for Falstaff had one shirt in his company, while he did not have one whbte shirt to a brigade. In February, General Varnum wrote to General Greene: The army must soon dissolve. Many of the troops are destitute of meat and are several days in arrear. The horses are dying for want of forage. The country in the vicinity of the camp is exhausted. There cannot be a moral certainty of bettering their condition while we remain here. We cannot reconcile their sufferings to the sentiments of honest menn No political conditions can justify it. The condition of the men in their Homeric camp was better than it had been in the preceding months of marching and countermarching. They were somehow fed and occasionally an allowance of drink was served out, and the bake-house saw an occasional play, and there was preaching in the regiments, the hospitals were visited. The Rev. James Sproat, recording his visit, was very highlv pleased with the situation of the camp. 'on the reception of the news of the ratification of the treaties of alliance with France and Spain the soldiers held a jollification, as they had previously celebrated May-day with honors to King Tammany. General Washington would dine with an officer and play at cricket with the staff. Life was not alto gether gloomy at the camp and the army came from its long period of inaction improved in discipline, new modeled in organization and With some uni formity in drill established throughout its ranks.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Workizer, Thropp Cone Families: Biographical Notes Concerning Their Relations to Historical Events in the Schuylkill Valley and at Valley Forge Had it not been for events which occurred thereabouts of vital importance to our national life, the name Valley Forge would possess no more significance to the American mind than the name of Greenwood Furnace, Eagle Foundry, Blair's Mills, or any other village grown up around a similar center of industry. But the same fundamental cause which brought hither this institution of peaceful labor in order that its great mill wheel might be turned by the running stream - for the Forge was also a grist-mill - also brought hither in the winter of 1777 and 1778 those hardy sons of Liberty, who, though lovers of peace and the pursuits of peace, now carried the implements of war that their Liberty might be secured. The valleys of the earth have from time immemorial been the pathways of history - the history of war and the history ofpeace. The navigable streams which ran through them were the natural avenues of travel. The contours of their borders permitted of roadways with easy grades. The streams afforded power for industry and water for domestic use. The alluvial soil and abundant moisture yielded the husbandman an ample reward for his toil. The protecting hills sheltered the inhabitants from the chill blasts of winter. And so mankind has traveled through, settled in, and made history in the valleys.

Download or read book Prisoners of Congress written by Norman E. Donoghue II and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2023-06-06 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1777, Congress labeled Quakers who would not take up arms in support of the War of Independence as “the most Dangerous Enemies America knows” and ordered Pennsylvania and Delaware to apprehend them. In response, Keystone State officials sent twenty men—seventeen of whom were Quakers—into exile, banishing them to Virginia, where they were held for a year. Prisoners of Congress reconstructs this moment in American history through the experiences of four families: the Drinkers, the Fishers, the Pembertons, and the Gilpins. Identifying them as the new nation’s first political prisoners, Norman E. Donoghue II relates how the Quakers, once the preeminent power in Pennsylvania and an integral constituency of the colonies and early republic, came to be reviled by patriots who saw refusal to fight the English as borderline sedition. Surprising, vital, and vividly told, this narrative of political and literal warfare waged by the United States against a pacifist religious group during the Revolutionary War era sheds new light on an essential aspect of American history. It will appeal to anyone interested in learning more about the nation’s founding.
