Download or read book Pennsylvania Revolutionary War written by Dalila Innocenti and published by . This book was released on 2021-04-27 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everybody knows that American soldiers suffered terribly during the winter the Continental Army spent at Valley Forge. Few recall that Brigadier General Anthony Wayne couldn't get Pennsylvania political officials to provide suitable clothing for the troops of the Pennsylvania Line although he repeatedly documented that hundreds of men lacked even "a single rag of a shirt." With the sesquicentennial of the American Revolution on the horizon, this book delves deeply into contemporary accounts of the times that so severely tried the souls of Rebels and Tories alike. The author paints a surprisingly fresh picture of the era. His true stories range from the eastern cities to the rustic frontier. There's a common misconception that the American Revolutionary War pretty much ended when the British surrendered at Yorktown, Virginia, in 1781. Not true. More than eight months later, a force of Indians and British burned the western Pennsylvania settlement of Hannastown, then the Westmoreland County seat. The town was never rebuilt.

Download or read book The Disaffected written by Aaron Sullivan and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2019-03-15 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elizabeth and Henry Drinker of Philadelphia were no friends of the American Revolution. Yet neither were they its enemies. The Drinkers were a merchant family who, being Quakers and pacifists, shunned commitments to both the Revolutionaries and the British. They strove to endure the war uninvolved and unscathed. They failed. In 1777, the war came to Philadelphia when the city was taken and occupied by the British army. Aaron Sullivan explores the British occupation of Philadelphia, chronicling the experiences of a group of people who were pursued, pressured, and at times persecuted, not because they chose the wrong side of the Revolution but because they tried not to choose a side at all. For these people, the war was neither a glorious cause to be won nor an unnatural rebellion to be suppressed, but a dangerous and costly calamity to be navigated with care. Both the Patriots and the British referred to this group as "the disaffected," perceiving correctly that their defining feature was less loyalty to than a lack of support for either side in the dispute, and denounced them as opportunistic, apathetic, or even treasonous. Sullivan shows how Revolutionary authorities embraced desperate measures in their quest to secure their own legitimacy, suppressing speech, controlling commerce, and mandating military service. In 1778, without the Patriots firing a shot, the king's army abandoned Philadelphia and the perceived threat from neutrals began to decline—as did the coercive and intolerant practices of the Revolutionary regime. By highlighting the perspectives of those wearied by and withdrawn from the conflict, The Disaffected reveals the consequences of a Revolutionary ideology that assumed the nation's people to be a united and homogenous front.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The focus of this book is the Revolutionary War in Pennsylvania and New Jersey. And while the primary focus is on military operations, major political events are included, also, such as the First and Second Continental Congresses, and the approval of the Declaration of Independence in 1776. Of course, we'll examine Washington's victories at Trenton, Princeton, Whitemarsh and Monmouth, as well as his defeats at Brandywine, Fort Mifflin and Germantown. And, we'll examine the miracle of Valley Forge, where a former Prussian officer turned the Continentals into an army to be reckoned with. But we'll also look at lesser known battles, such as Crooked Billet, Gloucester, Springfield and Wyoming. This book has 75+ illustrations.
