Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from American History From German Archives Sparks in his collection, now deposited in the Library of Harvard University, had a collection of papers of Steuben, the Ms. of DeKalb´s mission to America in 1768 (since printed in part in French), and the correspondence of Frederick the Great with his Ministers in London and Paris during the American War of Independence, procured in Berlin in 1844 by Wheaton, then American Minister there. In the Magazine of American History for 1877 there is a translation by A. A. Bierstadt of Bauermeister´s Narrative of the Capture of New York, addressed to Captain von Waugenheim. This was part of the Bancroft collection. In the same volume is De Lancey´s account of the capture of Fort Washington, with a map, from the original in Cassel, obtained by Prof. Joy for Mr. J. Carson Brevoort. The New York Historical Society has printed the journal of Krafft, a volunteer and corporal in Donop´s regiment and a lieutenant in that of von Bose, who married in New York, became a clerk in the Treasury Department at Washington and died there in 1804. That Society has also printed the Journal of General Rainsford, the British commissary in charge of the German forces sent to this country by Great Britain. General Stryker obtained from the Archives at Marburg and Cassel many important papers freely and well used in his capital history of the Battle of Trenton. They include the court of inquiry of the Lossberg, Knyphausen and Rail regiments, lists of their officers and of those of the artillery and Yagers; maps by Wiederhold, Fischer and Piel; the letters of Donop and Rall, of the Elector of Hesse to Knyphausen; diaries of Piel, Mmnigerode, Wiederhold and Ewald; reports of Donop´s spies; and altogether some twenty Mss., all dealing with the battle of Trenton.
