From the Battle of Lexington and Concord on 19 April, 1775, up
through the reduction of the victorious Continental Army to a
single regiment in January 1784, this book is a day-to-day
chronicle of the American Revolution, both on the battlefield and
in the halls of the Continental Congress. Covered in detail are the
movements of not only the Continental Army and Navy, but the
Marines-not covered comprehensively in other sources-and the
militia. Information on the actions of Congress highlights each
day's business, including the resolutions pertinent to the war.
Drawing on such vital primary documents as the Journals of the
Continental Congress and the Diplomatic Correspondence of the
American Revolution, the book offers a close-up view of the
political and military tension of the time, the perilous situation
of the colonists, and the concerns of the soldiers and sailors
immersed in battle. It also provides insight into the moves and
counter-moves of British and American forces as intelligence flowed
in both directions to influence the course of combat. All military
campaigns of the revolution, from Canada to Florida and Louisiana,
are included. The result is unmatched coverage of the battles, both
military and legislative, that gave birth to America.
