2006 Scholar's Bookshelf reprint of these two massive volumes originally published in 1879 by the New York Historical Society and presenting an extraordinarily detailed account of the events of the Revolution from the Loyalist viewpoint as originally written by a justice of the Supreme Court of New York who returned to England in 1781. He was named in the New York Act of Attainder and his estates confiscated. He spent the years before his death in 1792 writing this history, much of which he had seen first-hand, of New York from 1752 to the coming and events of the Revolution and its aftermath, especially the Attainder that affected him directly. The work includes extensive material detailing how the Loyalists were victimized in business and their property taken from them in ""illegal and cruel"" ways, as well as accounts of military events, again from the Loyalist view. Reprint edition. 2006: 748 + 714 pages, with illustrations. INCLUDES THE 3 ORIGINAL COLOR MAPS, ONE ""THE FIRST MAP OF THE UNITED STATES"" ON 1 CD. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
