Book excerpt: Excerpt from Washington and the Generals of the American Revolution, Vol. 1 of 2 The American Revolution was one of the grandest events in history; and for its influence upon the condition of men, and the destinies of nations, it must long remain among the most interesting subjects of study. But readers have hitherto been without any work of authority through which they might be made acquainted with its actors. Scattered biographies of many of the leading soldiers of the time have indeed appeared, but no one production that could serve as a companion to our military annals, properly introducing the dramatis person . In these volumes an attempt has been made to supply this want. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

WASHINGTON AND THE GENERALS OF THE REVOLUTION. GEORGE WASHINGTON. It is a truth, illustrated in daily experience, and yet rarely noted or acted upon, that, in all that concerns the appreciation of personal character or ability, the instinctive impressions of a community are quicker in their action, more profoundly appreciant, and more reliable, than the intellectual perceptions of the ablest men in the community. Upon all those subjects that are of moral apprehension, society seems to possess an intelligence of its own, infinitely sensitive in its delicacy, and almost conclusive in the certainty of its determinations: indirect, and unconscious in its operation, yet unshunnable in sagacity, and as strong and confident as nature itself. The highest and finest qualities of human judgment seem to be in commis sion among the nation, or the race. It is by such a pro cess, that whenever a true hero appears among mankind, the recognition of his character, by the general sense of Vol. I. 1 humanity, is instant and certain: the belief of the chief priests and rulers of mind, follows later, or cornes not at all. The perceptions of a public are as subtly-sighted, as its passions are blind. It sees, and feels, and knows the excellence, which it can neither understand, nor explain, nor vindicate. These involuntary opinions of people at large explain themselves, and are vindicated by events, and form at last the constants of human understanding. A character of the first order of greatness, such as seems' to pass out of the limits and course of ordinary life, often lies above the ken of intellectual judgment; but its merits and its infirmities never escape the sleepless perspicacity of the common sentiment, which no novelty of form can surprise, and no...

This book was released on 2018-02-28 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Washington and His Generals, Vol. 1 of 2 Some would think that such men as Morgan, and Henry Lee, and Sumpter, and Pickens, and Clinton, and others deserve a prominent place, and so they do; but acting in a subordinate capacity, it is impossible to place them in any other relative position. Lee and Morgan especially, merit all the praise bestowed on any chief commander. I have therefore endeavored to render them, and others justice, in describing the battles they helped to gain; and in an Appen dix supplied their biograjphies. Colonel Hamilton too was one of the most important men of the Revolution but as aid to Washington, his services partook more of the cabinet than of the field. Probably, there was no officer in the service more capable of managing an army, or that would have shed greater lustre on our arms than he. But Washington could not Spare him from his Side. Chivalrous, brave, of profound forethought, and trancendent genius, he would have run a military career surpassed by none. Still he rendered greater service where he was - for the daring and resolute youth was one Of the firmest props of Washington. But as my design is to sketch the military part of the Revolution, and also to confine myself to the chief commanders, I have not incorporated him in the work.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Revolution, Vol. 1 of 2 It is an obvious comment upon the present work, that a story of the American Revolution which stops with the sur render oi Cornwallis and the consequent fall of Lord North's ministry is incomplete. One might reply, in general, that any historical narrative must needs be incomplete wherever it may happen to stop; but on the present occasion a more suitable answer is that the story is continued in my book entitled The Critical Period of American History, the first chapter of which deals with the Results of Yorktown. The text of this edition has been thoroughly revised, and in many places new matter has been added. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Washington and His Generals written by George Lippard and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-02 with total page 552 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Washington and His Generals: Or Legends of the Revolution Allow me, sir, to inscribe with your name, this book of Washington and his Generals, as illustrated in the Legends of the Revolution. To you, as Editor and Proprietor of the first literary journal in the country - a journal which numbering its readers by hundreds of thousands, has hitherto stood alone in its proud devotion to the American Past - do I with sincere feelings of respect for your heart and intellect, dedicate these Legends of the camp, the council, and the field. I am induced to make this Dedication, by a feeling of simple justice to myself and you. Your paper has always been, not only the family paper of the Union, but the Journal of Revolutionary Romance and History. As the Editor, you have ever been untiring in your efforts, to preserve in its columns, the legends of our battlefields, the chronicles of our early struggles for freedom, the memories of our illustrious dead. Your name therefore, by a sincere impulse of justice, I inscribe at the head of these traditions, trusting that you will excuse the liberty I have taken, on account of the feeling by which it is dictated. There are other reasons which enter into the Spirit of this Dedication. Last summer, when my good name as a citizen, my honor as an author, was attacked in the most licentious manner, by a band of obscene libellers - some of whom have since made their humble and fawning apologies to me - you did not count the cost, nor falter for a moment, but came out for me like a Man, and in the columns of your paper, whipped the whole pack into their native obscurity. This is strong language. The occasion demands it. The men who have made me the object of their slander, ever since I published a line, are no less merciless in their dealings with the unfortunate, than they are servile and truckling to the rich and powerful. They would stab you in the back to-day, and lick the dust from your shoes to-morrow. Now, that I have surmounted their accumulated falsehoods - as much by your honestly rendered aid, as by the voice of the Press throughout the land - I scorn the humbly offered friendship of these men, as much as I ever scorned their petty animosity. My earnest prayer will ever be - let creatures lie these, born of the atmosphere of malignity, and nurtured by the breath of falsehood, always remain my enemies. When they become my friends, I will confess myself utterly unworthy the respect of one honest man. This work entitled, "Washington and his Generals, as illustrated in the Legends of the Revolution," may be described in one word, as an earnest attempt to embody the scenes of the Past, in a series of Historical pictures.
