Excerpt from John Sevier as a Commonwealth-Builder: A Sequel to the Rearguard of the Revolution The materials from which this volume has been constructed have been, in part, the same as those I employed in writing a preceding book upon the same subject, under the title of "The Rear-Guard of the Revolution." But this work goes over later and more thoroughly tilled ground than that, and hence I have had for it a wider range of authorities. Briefly stated, my sources of information have been, first and primarily, lengthy conversations with Dr. J. G. M. Ramsey, of Knoxville, Tennessee, during which his "Annals of Tennessee" was used somewhat in the manner of a text-book - Dr. Ramsey pointing out its inaccuracies, amplifying its narrative with interesting details, and relating to me such additional facts as he had gathered during the nearly thirty years since the writing of his history. He was a man of rare culture and trained intellect, and, by the character of his mind, was peculiarly qualified for historical investigation. When I knew him, he had given fifty years of his life to the study of this subject. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1886 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER III. ON THE OUTPOSTS. Having now prepared the stage, it is time for the prompter to ring up the curtain and call upon it the actors who are to take parts in this first scene of the great drama which is to be enacted in the wilderness. The theatre is only a barn, and the performers are merely a band of strollers, but the spectator will soon see that they are great actors, and the play the first act in a grand drama that may not be played out for centuries--not, at least, until civilization shall have overspread the whole vast continent west of the Alleghanies. By that silent suffrage, according to which every man is speedily elected to his true place in a new community, the young farmer, Robertson, was soon given the leading position in the Watauga settlement. There were older men than he among the settlers, and those better bred and better educated, but it soon came to be understood that he possessed the qualities that peculiarly fitted him for leadership; and so he was tacitly recognized as the head man in the little community, and looked up to and obeyed accordingly. He was at this time not quite thirty years of age. His personal appearance at a later date is described by an aged granddaughter, writing more than a century afterward, as follows: "He was," she writes, "about five feet nine inches in height, heavy' built, but not too fat. His head inclined slightly forward, so that his light-blue eyes were usually shaded by his heavy eyebrows. His hair was very dark--like a mole in color--and his complexion, though naturally very fair, was darkened and reddened by exposure. I remember him as being uncommonly quiet and thoughtful, and full of the cares of business. We all loved and venerated him." * From other sources I gather...

Excerpt from The Female Spy, or Treason in the Camp: A Story of the Revolution Next behind the two personages thus de scribed, rode the two aids-de-camp of the General, also finely equipped, and wearing the uniforms assigned to the rank of major; and next behind these officers rode two black females, one of whom carried an infant in her arms while the rear-guard was composed of two black male servants in livery. Having brought the whole party to your notice, reader, it may be as well to say here of whom it was composed. The one first de scribed was major-general Benedict Arnold; the lady by his side was his wife; the aids-de camp were Majors Varick and Franks; the blacks were the household servants of the General, and the infant was his own child by his present wife.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Drawing on primary and secondary sources, this book offers a new synthesis of the sixty years before the Civil War. James A. Ramage and Andrea S. Watkins explore this crucial but often overlooked period, finding that the early years of statehood were an era of great optimism and progress. Ramage and Watkins demonstrate that the eyes of the nation often focused on Kentucky, which was perceived as a leader among the states before the Civil War.--From publisher's description.
