Anthony Wayne: Soldier of the Early Republic Hardcover - 1985

by Paul David Nelson


From the publisher

Paul David Nelson has written an exciting biography of an exciting figure--the military hero of the American Revolution and the Indian Wars in the Northwest Territory--"Mad" Anthony Wayne. Some of his contemporaries called him rash and impetuous, a braggart and a dandy. "More active and enterprising than judicious and cautious" was George Washington's verdict. True, Wayne had a flair for the dramatic and consciously acted the role of swashbuckler, but he proved himself one of the best and most successful military leaders of the early American republic.

Despite his reputation for madness, Wayne, as Nelson points out, was a prudent and careful officer whose military record belies the myth. When he ran out of wars to fight, Wayne turned to the political arena. Nelson shows that the qualities which made Wayne a great military leader served him well in politics. He proved himself articulate and shrewd in statecraft in a critical time for the young republic, the years just after ratification of the Constitution.

Description:
368 Pages.This well-written biography of one of the American Revolution's greatest military leaders is encased in a dust jacket that has lots of edge wear on the top, bottom, and side edges, has some small tears that were taped up, has a crease along the right spine's vertical edge and inside the jacket and at the top of the rear side, there is red staining. The interior book, however, is in Near Fine condition with no visible extraneous markings anywhere in the book, and thus all printing and maps are in very well-preserved and enjoyable condition and the book has good and tight bindings. The only detriment being slightly worn corners.This book will be carefully wrapped up and then boxed and shipped right away to you from here in New Jersey and comes to you with our grateful appreciation for your interest and your order.
