About This Item

Albany, New York: Joel Munsell's Sons:, 1884. By Lieut. James M. Hadden, also Orders kept by him and issued by Sir Carleton, Lieut. General John Burgoyne and Major General William Phillips, in 1776, 1777 and 1778. With an explanatory chapter and notes by Horatio Rogers, Brevett Brigadier General U.S. V., and formerly Colonel Second Rhode Island Infantry: Member of the American Antiquarian Society, and author of Private Libraries Of Providence. 581 pages, with 9 illustrations and Errata slip tipped in. "A knowledge of the British, no less than of the American participants in Burgoyne's campaign, being necessary to the proper understanding of that great event, has led me to investigate the personnel of Burgoyne's army, and to annotate the text far more fully than had, at first, been intended. No reference in the notes has been made to characters like Stark, Schuyler, Heath, Warner, Morgan, Lord Stirling, etc., as they are presumed to be familiar to the American reader; and though Dr. O'Callaghan, in Burgoyne's Orderly Book, has sketched, with more or less fullness. So little is known of Burgoyne's Canadian and Provincial officers, and especially of the elder of Burgoyne's Indians, that no pains have been spared to glean all possible information in regard to them." "In August 1875, the editor purchased two morocco book formed cases, which had just arrived from London. Two books were a manuscript journal kept by Lieut. James M. Hadden for the Royal Artillery, from his embarkation for Canada, March 4, 1776, to the close of the battle of Freeman's Farm, Sept. 19, 1777, Lieut. Hadden having served under Gen. Carleton in Canada in 1776, and participated in Burgoyne's campaign the following year. The other six memorandum books were filled with copies of orders issued during 1776, 1777, and early part of 1778." This book internally is in fine condition. The original red cloth covers are in very good condition, with some wear at the corners and spine edges. Also the red cloth has faded slightly along the spine. The paper label on the spine is worn but the lettering is bright.. Hard Cover. Very Good/Not Issued with a Dust Jacket.. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
