Synopsis

Memoirs, Letters, and Journals of Major General Riedesel V2: During His Residence in America (1868) is a historical book written by Friedrich Adolf Riedesel. The book is a compilation of personal accounts, letters, and journals of Major General Riedesel during his stay in America. Riedesel was a German soldier who fought for the British army during the American Revolution. He was captured by the American forces and spent several years in captivity. During his stay in America, he kept a detailed journal of his experiences, which he later compiled into this book. The book provides readers with an insight into the life of a soldier during the American Revolution, as well as the political and social conditions of the time. The second volume of the book covers Riedesel's experiences during his captivity and his eventual release.
