Selections From the Correspondence of Thomas Barclay

Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Selections From the Correspondence of Thomas Barclay: Formerly British Consul-General at New York Thomas Barclay was born in the city of New-York on October 12, 1753. He was an active and zealous Loyalist during the Revolution, and at its close sought refuge in the Province of Nova Scotia. In 1799 he returned to New-York as British consul-general; and here, with brief interruptions, he resided until his death on April 21, 1830. Nearly fifty years of his life were spent in the public service of Great Britain, and yet he was by descent and marriage, as well as by birth and residence, essentially an American, and not an Englishman. He was indeed a very typical New-Yorker, of the pre-Revolutionary and loyal sort; closely allied to the English Church and the Royal Government, but tracing his descent back through four generations to some of the earliest settlers in the colonies.
