Camp-Fires of the Revolution: Or the War of Independence
Henry C. Watson
Paperback
(Forgotten Books, July 2, 2012)
In presenting the Camp-F ires of the Kevolution to the public, a few remarks may be necessary, or, at least, will not be mal a propos. The battles, sieges, fortunes, of the war in which American Independence was secured, may be found detailed in history, with all possible accuracy, and elaborate criticism. But the sufferings of the ill-furnished soldiers during the long and dreary winters of that period, and their means of whiling away the time when forced to gather around the camp-fire and watch when they had not the conveniences for sleeping, are not to be found on the dignified page of history.(Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)About the Publisher Forgotten Books is a publisher of historical writings, such as: Philosophy, Classics, Science, Religion, History, Folklore and Mythology.Forgotten Books' Classic Reprint Series utilizes the latest technology to regenerate facsimiles of historically important writings.
