Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Letters of George Washington to George and James Clinton: A Collection of Thirty-Five Letters, of Which Twenty-Six Are Unpublished, Together With Washington´s War Map of New York and New Jersey We then proceeded to buy from other dealers as many as possible of the letters that we had not bid in at the sale, thus obtaining all excepting five of the entire Clinton series. Of the thirty-five letters now in our possession, items numbered VI, XIX, XXI, XXVII, and XXXV have been entirely published, and items numbered IV, VII, XXIII, and XXXIII mainly published, the interesting postscripts of these four letters remaining unpublished. The Other Twenty-Six Letters Have Never Been Printed, And Form An Unpublished Series Of Historic Revolutionary Manuscripts Such As May Never Be Met With Again. As will be found from the following pages, these letters supply a lost chapter in the story of that event of paramount importance in the history of the world - the American Revolution. It is a chapter written by the chief actor in that great drama. It throws a stronger light than ever upon the many-sided character of George Washington: it shows his caution, coupled with boldness; his unfaltering zeal for the American cause, his bravery and brilliancy, his watchfulness and mastery of detail - in a word it gives a perfect picture of the "Father of his Country."
