Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Invasion of Canada in 1775 The Journal of Captain Simeon Thayer makes no pretension to literary merit. It was written, doubtless, to keep fresh in the memory of the author the facts of his personal experience during his march through the wilderness to Quebec, as well as his confinement while prisoner of war, without expectation of its ever appearing in print. It is here reproduced as it stands in the original, without any change of capital letters or of orthography, and with only such added punctuation as was thought necessary to render clear the meaning of the text. For this reason a number of words will be found incorrectly spelled. The Introduction reason of a number of a words will be found incorrectly spelled. The introduction, Notes and Appendix, are the results of extensive research. The first is prefixed, and the latter are added, to give completeness to the story one of the most daring and important military enterprise of the Revolutionary war. A Bibliography of the journal published on the subject, so far as is known, and so far as is known, and also a list of works which treat more or less fully upon the Invasion of Canada, is herewith annexed - the first that has ever been attempted - for the convenience of student of this portion of American history. Possibility some Journal of "Arnold´s Expedition" have been published that have escaped attention, and it is by no means certain that the list of reference work of complete. Additional under either of these heads are earnestly solicited, and will be gratefully acknowledged.

M. H. Taggart, State Treasurer, Pennsylvania; Henry T. Drowne, Esq., Secretary Connecticut Historical Society; John G. Metcalf, M. D., Mendon, Mass.; Simon Henry Greene, Esq.; River Point, R. I.; David King, M. D., Newport, R. I.; William W. Burr, Stephen T. Olney, and Crawford Allen, Esqs., Providence, R. I.
