Grace Barclay's Diary: 1776-1783
Author: Grace Barclay
Publisher: BIG BYTE BOOKS
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 73
Book Description
"PLUNDER, rapine, and violence still go on...It has indeed been at times almost beyond endurance." With her husband away at war, Grace Barclay strives to carry on day-to-day, raising children, caring for a household, and keeping a journal for her husband to read when he gets home. Neighbors are robbed and depredations committed on citizens by British soldiers. One of the most enthralling diaries from America's War of Independence is now available as an affordable, well-formatted book for e-readers and smartphones. From 1875-1883, American colonists fought for independence from their mother country. This is the true story of ordinary citizens during the occupation of Long Island by the British. A wounded British officer is housed in Grace's care against her will. Yet she comes to admire and like the man, and he eventually renounced the war his country has brought to the colonies. She writes of the terrible void and anxiety caused by her husband's absence, and the family members who feel he is fighting for the wrong side. Even her own father cannot forsake his feelings for his homeland of England. All the while, Grace records news of victories and defeats, her admiration for George Washington, and so much more. The death of Nathan Hale, the betrayal of Benedict Arnold, and the execution of Major Andre are all among her jottings. You'll never think about the colonial period in quite the same way after reading GRACE BARCLAY'S DIARY. Be sure to LOOK INSIDE or download a sample.
