The History Of The Rise, Progress, And Establishment, Of The Independence Of The United States Of America - Softcover
Synopsis
The History Of The Rise, Progress, And Establishment, Of The Independence Of The United States Of America: Including An Account Of The Late War ; And Of The Thirteen Colonies, From Their Origin To That Period by William Gordon offers a comprehensive, documentary account of the American Revolution, detailing campaigns circa 1777–1778 in the Middle Atlantic, the Saratoga victory and its diplomatic aftershocks, and the emergence of a centralized framework for the United States. The narrative moves among the Delaware defenses near Philadelphia (Red Bank, Fort Mifflin, Mud Island), the Washington camp at Valley Forge, and European theaters (London and Paris diplomacy) with sustained attention to the French alliance and treaties. It surveys domestic hardship, mutinies, provisioning, and the debates over half-pay, boards of war, and reform of the inspectorate and medical and provisioning systems, as well as prisoner exchanges. Diplomatic currents culminate in Franco-American treaties and shifting parliamentary reactions, while the text presents the Articles of Confederation and early attempts at centralizing finances and policy. The work blends narrative history with primary sources to illuminate the brutal realities of war alongside ambitious constitutional experimentation.
