Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Conrad Alexandre Gerard and American Independence, Vol. 9 One unbound copy, particularly valuable to students, is retained in the Division of Manuscripts of the Library of Congress. These Facsimiles are however only part of the treasure made available to students of Colonial and United States history, through the efforts of this great, but almost unknown American. The Division of Manuscripts of the Library of Congress possesses in addition to the above: 1. The Stevens´s French Alliance Transcripts, covering the correspondence (1778-1782) between Vergennes and the French Ministers, Gerard, La Luzerne, and Marbois 5,688 folio pages. 2. The Stevens´s Peace Transcripts, (1782-1784) 5,280 folio pages; and, most stupendous of all. 3. The Stevens´s Catalogue Index, of Manuscripts in the Archives of England, France, Holland, and Spain, in which 163,000 documents relating to America for the period, 1763-1783, are summarized, located, and given their proper dates. The whole is contained in 180 folio, manuscript volumes. It is a self-evident fact that the part played by Catholics as Catholics, in the drama of the American Revolution, has been everywhere consistently ignored by historians. The remedy to this defect lies in a study of the documents themselves. It has been with a desire to give the Catholic Church its true place in the story of American Independence, that the present studies have been undertaken.
