Download or read book The Negro in the American Revolution written by Benjamin Quarles and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2012-12-01 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1961, this classic work remains the most comprehensive history of the many and important roles played by African Americans during the American Revolution. With this book, Benjamin Quarles added a new dimension to the military history of the Revolution and addressed for the first time the diplomatic repercussions created by the British evacuation of African Americans at the close of the war. The compelling narrative brings the Revolution to life by portraying those tumultuous years as experienced by Americans at all levels of society. In an introduction, Gary B. Nash traces the evolution of scholarship on African Americans in the American Revolution from its early roots with William C. Nell to this groundbreaking study. Quarles's work not only reshaped our thinking about the black revolutionary experience but also invigorated the study of black history as we know it today. Thad W. Tate, in a foreword, pays tribute to the importance of this work and explains its continuing relevance.

Book Synopsis African Americans In The Revolutionary War by : Lt. Col. (Ret.) Michael Lee Lanning
Download or read book African Americans In The Revolutionary War written by Lt. Col. (Ret.) Michael Lee Lanning and published by Citadel Press. This book was released on 2021-11-29 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A thorough, long-overdue study of Black Americans’ contributions during the War of Independence. . . . An important piece of American and African American history.” —Kirkus Reviews In this enlightening and informative work, military historian Lt. Col. Michael Lee Lanning (ret.) reveals the little-known, critical, and heroic role African Americans played in the American Revolution, serving in integrated units—a situation that would not exist again until the Korean War—more than 150 years later . . . At first, neither George Washington nor the Continental Congress approved of enlisting African Americans in the new army. Nevertheless, Black men—both slave and free—filled the ranks and served in all of the early battles. Black sailors also saw action in every major naval battle of the Revolution, including members of John Paul Jones’s crew aboard the Bonhomme Richard. At least thirteen Black Americans served in the newly formed U.S. Marine Corps during the war. Bravery among African Americans was commonplace, as recognized by their commanders and state governments, and their bravery is recorded here in the stories of citizen Crispus Attucks at the Boston Massacre; militiaman Price Esterbrook at Lexington Green; soldier Salem Poor at Bunker Hill; and marine John Martin aboard the brig Reprisal. As interest in colonial history enjoys renewed popularity due to works like Hamilton, and the issues of prejudice and discrimination remain at the forefront of our times, African Americans in the Revolutionary War offers an invaluable perspective on a crucial topic that touches the lives of Americans of every color and background.

Book Synopsis Don Troiani's Black Soldiers in America's Wars: 1754–1865 by : John U. Rees
Download or read book Don Troiani's Black Soldiers in America's Wars: 1754–1865 written by John U. Rees and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2025-01-21 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using a masterful combination of artistry and accuracy, Don Troiani has dedicated his career to transforming our understanding of the military soldier. Don now turns his talents to capturing the under-recognized African-American soldiers as they fought in the French and Indian War, the War of Independence, the War of 1812, and the American Civil War. Don’s battle paintings, figure studies, and artifact collection are teamed with historian John Rees’s insightful text. This long-needed work combines Troiani’s magnificent art—the dramatic battle paintings and authentically illustrated uniformed soldier studies—with Rees’s introductory chapters on the four wars. Using primary sources, Rees gives a true picture of the contributions of the many Black soldiers over the 100-year history. Together Troiani and Rees provide the most comprehensive, authoritative, and well-researched study of the Black soldier in early America.

Book Synopsis Connecticut's Black Soldiers, 1775-1783 by : David O. White
Download or read book Connecticut's Black Soldiers, 1775-1783 written by David O. White and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2017-12-01 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Black soldiers of the American Revolution? Not a credible statement in light of what most Americans have read about the Revolutionary War. We have heard of Casimir Pulaski the Pole, Marquis de Lafayette the Frenchman, and Baron von Steuben the German, but not black participants. Yet, close to 5,000 blacks did fight in the war against the British, and others served as laborers, spies, and guides. The absence in our general histories of their activities in this struggle lies with the misconception that the Afro-American has contributed little or nothing towards the creation of the United States and its subsequent development, for in most studies made of the Revolutionary era, there has been little impulse to search for evidences of service by blacks, except perhaps to note the existence of slavery. Histories of Connecticut have generally treated the Revolution in a similar manner. Few of them have acknowledged the contributions of the black soldier. This is partially true because the story of Connecticut's black participant is one about the regular foot soldier in the Revolution and not about the men who led him into battle or the political leaders who guided the nation. And it is these men who most often fill the pages of our history books. As one phase of the Bicentennial observation, The American Revolution Bicentennial Commission of Connecticut has authorized scholars in a wide range of study to write a series of monographs on the broadly defined Revolutionary Era of 1763 to 1787. These monographs [appeared] yearly beginning in 1973 through 1980. Emphasis is placed upon the birth of the nation, rather than on the winning of independence on the field of battle.
Book Synopsis History of the American Negro in the Great World War by : William Allison Sweeney
Download or read book History of the American Negro in the Great World War written by William Allison Sweeney and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2022-11-21 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William Allison Sweeney's 'History of the American Negro in the Great World War' offers a comprehensive overview of African Americans' pivotal contributions during the First World War. Drawing upon official War Department records, Sweeney's detailed narrative not only encapsulates the valiant efforts of black soldiers in battle but also includes commendations from French and American military leaders. Notably, Sweeney's prose weaves a poignant tale within the broader literary context, correcting the oversight of these contributions in many historical texts, thus providing a more inclusive recount of the war. The text is both scholarly in its attention to detail and evocative in its literary execution, encapsulating an essential part of American history that is all too often neglected. William Allison Sweeney, in penning this significant tome, aimed to bring to light the underrepresented history of African American soldiers during WWI. A writer with a profound interest in the narratives of the Black community, Sweeney's work is a tribute to the valor and commitment of these soldiers. His effort to consult official records and include authoritative testimonials underscores his dedication to presenting an accurate and respectful account, one that would serve as a corrective to previously incomplete histories of the war. Sweeney's text is a crucial read for those seeking to understand the full spectrum of American participation in the Great War. It stands not only as a historical document but also as a testament to valor and sacrifice, one that should be part of any comprehensive study on the First World War. Readers interested in military history, African American studies, and American history, in general, will find 'History of the American Negro in the Great World War' a profound addition to their collection, offering a narrative that is as informative as it is inspiring.

The text includes an official summary of the treaty of peace and League of Nations covenant. With the entry of the United States into the Great War in 1917, African Americans were eager to show their patriotism in hopes of being recognized as full citizens. However, they were barred from the Marines, the Aviation unit of the Army, and served only in menial roles in the Navy. Despite their poor treatment, African-American soldiers provided much support overseas to the European Allies as well as at home" -- Bookseller's description.
