The Revolutionary War in Bergen County: The Times That Tried Men's Souls

by Carol Karels
The Revolutionary War in Bergen County: The Times That Tried Men's Souls - Thryft
The Revolutionary War in Bergen County: The Times That Tried Men's Souls - Thryft

Bergen County's Crucible: Patriots, Loyalists, War.

If you're drawn to lesser-known tales from the Revolutionary War, "The Revolutionary War in Bergen County" will be a captivating read. It ties the local strife and intricate wartime maneuvering in a corner of New Jersey to the greater narrative of American independence, revealing how crucial this region was. You'll get to explore how iconic historical figures like Washington, Lafayette, Burr, and Hamilton were all shaped by events here, as well as the profound divisions that war brought to families. It's history made personal, and it's a close look at the real costs of war.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Flanked by the Hudson River to the east and the Delaware River to the west, Bergen County comprised one of the most vital theaters of the Revolutionary War. An army that could control this territory could drive a fateful wedge between New England and the other colonies. In The Revolutionary War in Bergen County, Carol Karels and her team of scholars weave a masterful account of the war in northeastern New Jersey. From Washington's miraculous November 1776 retreat to the Delaware to the beginning of the Continental Army's epic August 1781 march to destiny at Yorktown, The Revolutionary War in Bergen County comprehensively encompasses one of the Revolutionary War's most dramatic and pivotal fronts.
