If you are the slightest bit interested in the birth of the United States as a nation, you should have this book in your collection. Gouverneur Morris is definitely someone I would like to have to dinner.
The only full-length study of the American Revolution in northern New York presents a full account of the Loyalist issues of the area, the role of the Mohawk Indians, battle actions in 1778-1780 involving many diverse issues and forces, and the controversial role of Walter Butler's Rangers and the battle at Cherry Valley. Illustrated.
