Contributions from a select group of historians explore the major issues and dilemmas that confronted both sides during the struggle in New York. Many of the studies offer significant eyewitness accounts; others focus on the military aspects of the war. In addition to the exploits and sentiments of the participants, the social implications of the Revolution on the newly emerging nation are also considered. Illustrated and indexed, this volume is both a valuable research tool and an exciting overview of the Revolutionary period in New York.
