Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Gen. John Sullivan and the Battle of Rhode Island: A Sketch of the Former and a Description of the Latter Island and New Hampshire, while the praise extended by Washington, himself, was also prompt and sincere. Gen. John Sullivan was of Irish parentage and was born at Berwick, Me., in 1740. His ancestors were of the historic Clan O'Sullivan of the Irish Kingdom of Munster. The O'Sullivans in antiquity and prominence rank with the oldest and most distinguished families in Europe. Irish history for nearly a thousand years records their greatness. They have also been distinguished in France and Spain, while in the United States, John, father of the general, has been the founder of one of the most distinguished families. As early as A. D. 909, a chief of the Clan was slain in battle with the Danes. Again, A. D. 943, in a great engagement with a Danish host in Ireland the Irish forces were commanded by another lord of the Clan. During the conflict, he slew in personal combat a son of the King of Denmark. The O'Sullivans have been hereditary chieftains of Beare and Bantry. They possessed the castles of Ardea, Dunkerron, and Dunboy, had various other strongholds, and for centuries could muster thousands of retainers and men-at-arms. The head of one branch of the family was styled O'Sullivan Mor; and that of another, O'Sullivan Beare. At the period of the English invasion of Ireland the Clan was among the most powerful in the country, and for a long period bravely kept aloft the Irish banner and unflinchingly opposed the forces of England. In Spain, the O'Sullivans were Knights of St. Iago and Counts of Berehaven. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book New Hampshire and the Revolutionary War written by Bruce D. Heald PhD and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2013-06-11 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New Hampshire was one of the first colonies to declare its independence from British rule. The patriotism and courage demonstrated in that act were by no means unprecedented--just before they began the Revolution, state residents attacked British-occupied Fort William and Mary in December 1774. While no battles were fought within the borders of the Granite State, these loyal sons of liberty contributed more men than any other state. Author Bruce D. Heald, PhD, celebrates the achievements and experiences of New Hampshire throughout the American Revolution. Learn how General John Stark gained battle experience in the French and Indian War that allowed him to successfully lead the First New Hampshire Regiment. Heald offers an in-depth description of the state's regiments, forts (including the Fort at Number 4 in Charlestown) and distinguished Patriots in addition to the signers of the Declaration of Independence.

Download or read book From Slaves to Soldiers written by Robert A. Geake and published by Westholme Publishing. This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Known as the "Black" Regiment, the Story of the First Continental Army Unit Composed of African American and Native American Enlisted Men In December 1777, the Continental army was encamped at Valley Forge and faced weeks of cold and hunger, as well as the prospect of many troops leaving as their terms expired in the coming months. If the winter were especially cruel, large numbers of soldiers would face death or contemplate desertion. Plans were made to enlist more men, but as the states struggled to fill quotas for enlistment, Rhode Island general James Mitchell Varnum proposed the historic plan that a regiment of slaves might be recruited from his own state, the smallest in the union, but holding the largest population of slaves in New England. The commander-in-chief's approval of the plan would set in motion the forming of the 1st Rhode Island Regiment. The "black regiment," as it came to be known, was composed of indentured servants, Narragansett Indians, and former slaves. This was not without controversy. While some in the Rhode Island Assembly and in other states railed that enlisting slaves would give the enemy the impression that not enough white men could be raised to fight the British, owners of large estates gladly offered their slaves and servants, both black and white, in lieu of a son or family member enlisting. The regiment fought with distinction at the battle of Rhode Island, and once joined with the 2nd Rhode Island before the siege of Yorktown in 1781, it became the first integrated battalion in the nation's history. In From Slaves to Soldiers: The 1st Rhode Island Regiment in the American Revolution, historian Robert A. Geake tells the important story of the "black regiment" from the causes that led to its formation, its acts of heroism and misfortune, as well as the legacy left by those men who enlisted to earn their freedom.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A well-organized and concise introduction to the war’s major battles” (The Journal of America’s Military Past). Winner of the Gold Star Book Award for History from the Military Writers Society of America This is the first comprehensive account of every engagement of the Revolution, a war that began with a brief skirmish at Lexington Green on April 19, 1775, and concluded on the battlefield at the Siege of Yorktown in October 1781. In between were six long years of bitter fighting on land and at sea. The wide variety of combats blanketed the North American continent from Canada to the Southern colonies, from the winding coastal lowlands to the Appalachian Mountains, and from the North Atlantic to the Caribbean. Every entry begins with introductory details including the date of the battle, its location, commanders, opposing forces, terrain, weather, and time of day. The detailed body of each entry offers both a Colonial and a British perspective of the unfolding military situation, a detailed and unbiased account of what actually transpired, a discussion of numbers and losses, an assessment of the consequences of the battle, and suggestions for further reading. Many of the entries are supported and enriched by original maps and photos.
