Book excerpt: Excerpt from Valley Forge: Proceedings on the Occasion of the Centennial Celebration of the Occupation of Valley Forge by the Continental Army, Under George Washington, June 19, 1878 Let coats-trimmed with blue, make a magnificent display. They are perfectly equipped, and look-well fed-and hearty. Behind. Them are more cavalry. No, these must be officers. The first one 18 splendidly mounted and wears the uniform of' a general, He is a stout man, with gray hair and a pleasant countenance, in spite of the squint of an eye which disfigu'res it. A whisper goes through the bystanders, -it is lord-cornwallis himself. A brilliant staff in various uniforms followshim and five men in civilian's dress. A glance of recognition follows these last like a wave along the street, for theyare Joseph Galloway, Enoch Story, Tench Coxe, and the two Allens, - father and son, - Tories, who have only dared to return home behind British bayonets. Llong lines of_ red coats; follow till the Fourth, the Fortieth, and the Fifty-fifth Regiments have passed But who are these in dark blue that come behind the grenadiers Breeches of yellow leather, leggings of black, and tall, pointed hats of brass complete their uniform. They wear moustaches, and have a fierce foreign look, and their unfamiliar music; seems to a child in that crowd to cry Plunder! Plunder! Plunder as it times their rapid march. These are the Hessian mers cenaries whom Washington surprised and thrashed _so well at Christmas in '76. And nowgrenadiers and yagers, horse, foot, and artillery that rumbles along making the windows rattle, have all passed by. The Fifteenth Regiment is drawn up on High Street, near Fifth; the Forty-second Highlanders in Chestnut below Third;-and the artillery is parked in the State House yard. 'all the afternoon the streets are full, wagons with luggage lumbering along, officers in scarlet riding to and fro, aides and orderlies seeking quarters for their differ ent officers. Yonder swarthy, haughty-looking man dismount ing at Norris's door is my Lord Rawdon. Lord Cornwallis is quartered at Peter Reeves's in Spruce, and Knyp hausen at Henry Lisle's, nearer to Dock Street, on the east. The younger officers are well bestowed, for Dr. F ran'klin's house has been taken by a Certain clever Captain Andre. The time for the. Evening parade comes, and the well-equipped regi ments are drawn up in line, while slowly to thestrains of mar tial music the sun sinks in autumnal splendor in the west.

  • Author : Lorett Treese
  • Publisher : Penn State Press
  • Release : 1995-03-07
  • ISBN : 0271074159
  • Pages : 288 pages

Download or read book Valley Forge written by Lorett Treese and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 1995-03-07 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than four million people a year visit Valley Forge, one of America's most celebrated historic sites. Here, amid the rolling hills of southeastern Pennsylvania, visitors can pass through the house which served as Washington's Headquarters during the famous winter encampment of 1777–1778. Others picnic and jog in the huge park, complete with monuments, recreated log huts, and modern visitor center, all built to pay tribute to the Valley Forge story. In this lively book, Lorett Treese shows how Valley Forge evolved into the tourist mecca that it is today. In the process, she uses Valley Forge as a means for understanding how Americans view their own past. Treese explores the origins of popular images associated with Valley Forge, such as George Washington kneeling in the snow to seek divine assistance. She places Valley Forge in the context of the historic preservation movement as the site became Pennsylvania's first state park in 1893. She studies its "Era of Monuments" and the movement to "restore" Valley Forge in the spirit of Rockefeller's enormously popular colonial Williamsburg. Treese describes a Valley Forge fraught with controversy over the appropriate appearance and use of a place so revered. One such controversy, the "hot dog war," a brief but intense battle over concession stands, was spawned by Americans' changing perceptions of how a national park was to be used. The volatile Vietnam era prompted the state park commission to establish its "Subcommittee on Sex, Hippies, and Whiskey Swillers" to investigate park regulation infractions. Even today, people differ over exactly what happened at Valley Forge during the winter of 1777–1778. The modern visitor sees the remains of over a century of commemoration, competition, and contention. The result, Treese shows, is a historic site that may reveal more about succeeding history than about Washington's army. This book will give its readers a new way to look at Valley Forge—and all historic sites.
