Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Beaumarchais and the War of American Independence" in 2 volumes is one of the best-known works by an American historian Elizabeth Sarah Kite. Pierre Beaumarchais (1732-1799) was a French polymath who rose in French society and became influential in the court of Louis XV as an inventor and music teacher. He made a number of important business and social contacts, and played various roles as a diplomat and spy. An early French supporter of American independence, Beaumarchais lobbied the French government on behalf of the American rebels during the American War of Independence. Before France officially entered the war in 1778, Beaumarchais played a major role in delivering French munitions, money and supplies to the American army._x000D_ Volume 1:_x000D_ Early life_x000D_ First Financial Successes_x000D_ Business Negotiations in Spain_x000D_ Beaumarchais's Return from Madrid_x000D_ The Famous Memoirs of Beaumarchais_x000D_ Beaumarchais Goes to London in Quality of Secret Agent of Louis XV_x000D_ Beaumarchais's Second Mission Under Louis XVI_x000D_ Playing Figaro upon the Stage of Life_x000D_ Visits the Empress of Austria_x000D_ The Character of Figaro_x000D_ The First Performance of Le Barbier de Séville_x000D_ Founder of the First Society of Dramatic Authors..._x000D_ Volume 2:_x000D_ Beaumarchais's Earliest Activities in the Cause of American Independence_x000D_ First Steps of the Government of France_x000D_ Beaumarchais's Memoirs to the King_x000D_ Beaumarchais's English Connections_x000D_ Memoirs Explaining to the King the Plan of His Commercial House_x000D_ Suspicions of England Aroused Through Indiscretions of Friends of America_x000D_ The Declaration of Independence and Its Effect in Europe_x000D_ Beaumarchais's Activity in Getting Supplies to America_x000D_ Letters to Congress_x000D_ The Mariage de Figaro_x000D_ House of Beaumarchais Searched_x000D_ Declared an Emigré_x000D_ Confiscation of his Goods_x000D_ Imprisonment of his Family_x000D_ The Ninth Thermidor Comes to Save Them_x000D_ Beaumarchais After his Return from Exile_x000D_ Correspondence with Bonaparte_x000D_ Pleads for Lafayette Imprisoned_x000D_ Death of Beaumarchais...

Book Synopsis Unlikely Allies by : Joel Richard Paul
Download or read book Unlikely Allies written by Joel Richard Paul and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2010-11-02 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the author of Without Precedent and Indivisible, the gripping true story of how three men used espionage, betrayal, and sexual deception to help win the American Revolution. Unlikely Allies is the story of three remarkable historical figures. Silas Deane was a Connecticut merchant and delegate to the Continental Congress as the American colonies struggled to break with England. Caron de Beaumarchais was a successful playwright who wrote The Barber of Seville and The Marriage of Figaro. And the flamboyant and mysterious Chevalier d'Éon—officer, diplomat, and sometime spy—was the talk of London and Paris. Is the Chevalier a man or a woman? When Deane is sent to France to convince the French government to support the revolutionary cause, he enlists the help of Beaumarchais. Together, they successfully smuggle weapons, ammunition, and supplies to New England just in time for the crucial Battle of Saratoga, which turned the tide of the American Revolution. And the catalyst for Louis XVI's support of the Americans against England was the Chevalier d'Éon, whose decision to declare herself a woman helped to lead to the Franco-American alliance. These three people spin a fascinating web of political intrigue and international politics that stretches across oceans as they ricochet from Versailles to Georgian London to the Pennsylvania State House (now Independence Hall) in Philadelphia. Each man has his own reasons for wanting to see America triumph over the British, and each contends daily with the certainty that no one is what they seem. The line between friends and enemies is blurred, spies lurk in every corner, and the only way to survive is to trust no one. An edge-of-your-seat story full of fascinating characters and lavish with period detail and sense of place, Unlikely Allies is Revolutionary history in all of its juicy, lurid glory.
Book Synopsis The British Are Coming by : Rick Atkinson
Download or read book The British Are Coming written by Rick Atkinson and published by Henry Holt and Company. This book was released on 2019-05-14 with total page 800 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the George Washington Prize Winner of the Barbara and David Zalaznick Book Prize in American History Winner of the Excellence in American History Book Award Winner of the Fraunces Tavern Museum Book Award From the bestselling author of the Liberation Trilogy comes the extraordinary first volume of his new trilogy about the American Revolution Rick Atkinson, author of the Pulitzer Prize-winning An Army at Dawn and two other superb books about World War II, has long been admired for his deeply researched, stunningly vivid narrative histories. Now he turns his attention to a new war, and in the initial volume of the Revolution Trilogy he recounts the first twenty-one months of America’s violent war for independence. From the battles at Lexington and Concord in spring 1775 to those at Trenton and Princeton in winter 1777, American militiamen and then the ragged Continental Army take on the world’s most formidable fighting force. It is a gripping saga alive with astonishing characters: Henry Knox, the former bookseller with an uncanny understanding of artillery; Nathanael Greene, the blue-eyed bumpkin who becomes a brilliant battle captain; Benjamin Franklin, the self-made man who proves to be the wiliest of diplomats; George Washington, the commander in chief who learns the difficult art of leadership when the war seems all but lost. The story is also told from the British perspective, making the mortal conflict between the redcoats and the rebels all the more compelling. Full of riveting details and untold stories, The British Are Coming is a tale of heroes and knaves, of sacrifice and blunder, of redemption and profound suffering. Rick Atkinson has given stirring new life to the first act of our country’s creation drama.
Book Synopsis Brothers at Arms by : Larrie D. Ferreiro
Download or read book Brothers at Arms written by Larrie D. Ferreiro and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2017-10-03 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pulitzer Prize Finalist in History Winner of the Journal of the American Revolution 2016 Book of the Year Award At the time the first shots were fired at Lexington and Concord the American colonists had little chance, if any, of militarily defeating the British. The nascent American nation had no navy, little in the way of artillery, and a militia bereft even of gunpowder. In his detailed accounts Larrie Ferreiro shows that without the extensive military and financial support of the French and Spanish, the American cause would never have succeeded. Ferreiro adds to the historical records the names of French and Spanish diplomats, merchants, soldiers, and sailors whose contribution is at last given recognition. Instead of viewing the American Revolution in isolation, Brothers at Arms reveals the birth of the American nation as the centerpiece of an international coalition fighting against a common enemy.
