Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Boston Merchant of 1745: Or Incidents in the Life of James Gibson, a Gentleman Volunteer at the Expedition to Louisburg, Journal of That Siege, Never Before Published in This Country by One of His Descendants This siege continued forty-eight days, and was carried on by undisciplined colonists against a well-trained army, and a fortification strouger than almost any in the world. Of the events of this siege, in which our army gamed a glorious triumph, Mr. Gibson kept a regular Journal, which was published afterward at London, and a copy presented to King George. A notice of this Journal appeared in a contemporary number of the "Gentleman´s Magazine," a periodical which has been continued for upward of 200 years. This Journal has never been reprinted in America. After searching through the principal libraries of New England, we are certain that few persons have ever seen it in this country. We have learned of late that societies are seeking to obtain mere extended information respecting this expedition, and therefore give this Journal entire to our readers.
