Diary of Captain Samuel Richards: Connecticut Line, Revolutionary War (Expanded, Annotated)

As a Connecticut captain in America's Revolutionary War, Samuel Richards lived through the carnage and deprivations that were the cost of freedom from England. His diary is important for its vivid descriptions of life in the ranks during battle, starvation, and the great events of his day.

Along the way, he saw Washington and Lafayette, fought the British, lost friends, and wrote his experiences for a later date.

This long out-of-print volume is available for the first time as an affordable, well-formatted book for e-readers. We have retained Captain Richards' quirky, inconsistent spelling and capitalization.

Every memoir of the American Revolution provides us with another view of the war that created the United States.

For the first time, this long out-of-print volume is available as an affordable, well-formatted book for e-readers and smartphones.
