Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Frontier Defense on the Upper Ohio, 1777-1778, Vol. 3: Compiled From the Draper Manuscripts in the Library of the Wisconsin Historical Society and Published at the Charge of the Wisconsin Society of the Sons of the American Revolution The Draper Series, of which this is Volume III, is devoted to the publication of original documentary material obtained in the main from the Draper Manuscript Collection, now in the Society´s possession. The task of selection and annotation, and of putting the volumes through the press, has fallen to the present Editors; but the cost of printing has generously been borne by the Wisconsin Society of the Sons of the American Revolution. The first volume, a Documentary History of Dunmore´s War, 1774, was published in May, 1905; the second, Revolution on the Upper Ohio, 1775-1777, appeared in February, 1908. The present is a continuation of Volume II, and will, it is expected, be followed by others, extending the subject to the close of the Revolutionary War. Volume II closed with news of the coming to Fort Pitt of Gen. Edward Hand. For the frontiersmen of the Upper Ohio, this was an event of much importance. He had served in its garrison during the British regime, and was well-known and popular throughout the district. His appointment was a welcome assurance to the borderers that the commander-in-chief and the Continental Congress proposed, so far as seemed then possible, to assist in their protection.
