Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into a lesser-known but pivotal event of the American Revolutionary War: Tryon's raid on Danbury, Connecticut, in April 1777. The author meticulously reconstructs the raid, the subsequent Battle of Ridgefield, and the impactful career of General David Wooster. The narrative is enriched by firsthand accounts and original materials, offering a unique perspective on this historical episode. Set against the backdrop of the broader Revolutionary War, the book highlights the strategic significance of Danbury as a supply depot for the Continental Army and the calculated decision by the British to disrupt American operations. The author vividly portrays the courage and determination of the local militia as they rallied to defend their homes and communities against the invading forces. Themes of patriotism, sacrifice, and the complexities of war are explored through the experiences of both prominent figures and ordinary citizens caught in the conflict. By shedding light on this often-overlooked event, this book provides valuable insights into the American Revolution's dynamics and the crucial role played by local communities in securing independence.
