This book is a fascinating document of the Revolutionary War, originally published in 1840. It tells the story of the thousands of American soldiers who were held as prisoners by the British during the war, often in terrible conditions. Herbert was himself a veteran of the war, and he brings a vivid and personal perspective to his account. He writes with anger and pathos about the suffering of his fellow soldiers, and also includes details on the political negotiations that eventually led to their release. This book is an important reminder of the sacrifices made by ordinary men and women in the fight for American independence.
