Description
Revolutionary Heroes And Other Historical Papers is a collection of essays and biographies written by James Parton. The book covers a range of historical events and figures, including the American Revolution and its key players, such as George Washington and Benjamin Franklin. Parton also explores the lives of lesser-known heroes who played significant roles in shaping the course of history. Additionally, the book includes essays on other topics of historical interest, such as the Salem witch trials and the life of Aaron Burr. Parton's writing style is engaging and informative, making this book an excellent choice for anyone interested in American history or biographical writing. Overall, Revolutionary Heroes And Other Historical Papers is a fascinating and well-written collection that sheds light on important moments and figures in American history.Mr. Adams relates an amusing story of his sleeping one night with Doctor Franklin, when they were on their way to hold their celebrated conference with Lord Howe on Staten Island. It was at Brunswick, in New Jersey, where the tavern was so crowded that two of the commissioners were put into one room, which was little larger than the bed, and which had no chimney and but one small window. The window was open when the two members went up to bed, which Mr. Adams seeing, and being afraid of the night air, shut it close.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
