Brewster, an experienced sailor, was directed to look up the enemy, and if possible to capture them. The boats put off from the shore, and although their course was before the wind, three of them were obliged to turn back. The enemy seeing our boats bearing down upon them, pressed all sail as well as oars, and steered for Long Island. Capt. Brewster steered his course so judiciously, that before they had reached the middle of the Sound (being here about 12 miles wide) he fell in with two of their heaviest boats, when they engaged with great fury. On the first fire, every man in one of the enemy's boats fell, being either killed or wounded. Capt. Brewster received a ball in his breast, which passed through his body. He, however, captured the two boats, and one escaped. Although we supposed Capt. Brewster mortally wounded, yet he recovered, and lived to be nearly 80 years old. On the third night I determined, if possible, to cross the Sound, and with the same flattering prospects when the sun set, I made preparations to embark the troops, when the wind rising again most furiously, I was constrained to give over the expedition, which became the more advisable as one of the enemy's boats had escaped, and probably had given the information that a body of our troops were on Shipan Point. The next day I removed my detachment and put them under march for camp. On the 8th of December, 1782,1 made my, report to Gen. Washington, more severely mortified and chagrined than I had ever been in my life. A letter in reply from Gen. Washington, dated December 10,1782, fully approving my conduct, served to raise my spirits again. What added greatly to my mortification, was the knowledge that my enterprise was a part of another, much more important, on the...
Book Synopsis Washington's Spymaster by : Benjamin Tallmadge
Download or read book Washington's Spymaster written by Benjamin Tallmadge and published by BIG BYTE BOOKS. This book was released on 2014-10-20 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Only 21 at the start of the America's Revolutionary War, Benjamin Tallmadge was an enthusiastic patriot. Appointed by George Washington to organize intelligence in British-occupied New York, Tallmadge formed the famous Culper Spy Ring, whom he mentions in this volume without giving names. Scenes of battle, the discovery of Benedict Arnold's betrayal, the execution of his classmate, Nathan Hale, were all part of Tallmadge's experiences in the war. Written primarily for his children, this memoir is nevertheless an important document by one of America's great heroes. His description of Washington's parting in New York from his officers after the victory is especially moving and shows a more human side of the great leader. For the first time, this long out-of-print book is available in an affordable, well-formatted edition for e-readers and smartphones. Be sure to LOOK INSIDE or download a sample.

Book Synopsis General Washington's Commando by : Richard F. Welch
Download or read book General Washington's Commando written by Richard F. Welch and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-03-27 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The multi-faceted Revolutionary War career of Benjamin Tallmadge included operations as a dragoon commander, intelligence and counter-intelligence officer, and master of combined land-sea operations. Tallmadge fought in the battles of Long Island, White Plains, and Germantown, and defended the Patriot population in the no-man's-land of Westchester County against British and Tory raiders. After Washington rewarded him with his own legion, he unleashed bold raids on British-occupied Long Island from his bases in Connecticut. All the while, he ran Washington's most active espionage ring in New York and Long Island. Reversing roles, he played a key role in foiling Benedict Arnold's plot to betray the American stronghold of West Point to the British. Tallmadge's Revolutionary service graphically illuminates the struggle in the region that witnessed the most continuous, relentless, often pitiless, fighting of the struggle. In particular, this book describes the internecine quality of the fighting in politically-divided Long Island and Westchester, and details how the struggle continued without let-up even after Yorktown. Though Tallmadge's fascinating post-war career receives careful attention, the book focuses on his Revolutionary War service.
Book Synopsis Washington's Spies by : Alexander Rose
Download or read book Washington's Spies written by Alexander Rose and published by Bantam. This book was released on 2014-03-25 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Turn: Washington’s Spies, now an original series on AMC Based on remarkable new research, acclaimed historian Alexander Rose brings to life the true story of the spy ring that helped America win the Revolutionary War. For the first time, Rose takes us beyond the battlefront and deep into the shadowy underworld of double agents and triple crosses, covert operations and code breaking, and unmasks the courageous, flawed men who inhabited this wilderness of mirrors—including the spymaster at the heart of it all. In the summer of 1778, with the war poised to turn in his favor, General George Washington desperately needed to know where the British would strike next. To that end, he unleashed his secret weapon: an unlikely ring of spies in New York charged with discovering the enemy’s battle plans and military strategy. Washington’s small band included a young Quaker torn between political principle and family loyalty, a swashbuckling sailor addicted to the perils of espionage, a hard-drinking barkeep, a Yale-educated cavalryman and friend of the doomed Nathan Hale, and a peaceful, sickly farmer who begged Washington to let him retire but who always came through in the end. Personally guiding these imperfect everyday heroes was Washington himself. In an era when officers were gentlemen, and gentlemen didn’ t spy, he possessed an extraordinary talent for deception—and proved an adept spymaster. The men he mentored were dubbed the Culper Ring. The British secret service tried to hunt them down, but they escaped by the closest of shaves thanks to their ciphers, dead drops, and invisible ink. Rose’s thrilling narrative tells the unknown story of the Revolution–the murderous intelligence war, gunrunning and kidnapping, defectors and executioners—that has never appeared in the history books. But Washington’s Spies is also a spirited, touching account of friendship and trust, fear and betrayal, amid the dark and silent world of the spy.
