George Robinson and his son, Sgt. James F. Robinson. Original spelling and capitalization has been retained to add another dimension to the lives of these two men. Their story is private in nature as the letters were written to inform and comfort those loved ones at home concerned for their health and safety. \"I am well and so is Jim and in good spirits - excitement runs high - we have just recd our arms, fine ones....\" As such, these men give the modern reader not only a glimpse of history from a first-hand point of view, but also the inner thoughts of both an officer and an enlisted man in one volume. Father and son began writing letters home from Charleston, South Carolina, on 9 January 1861, describing their daily life while working to build defenses in the harbor. When George's company disbanded, he returned home to manage his business and farm, and James enlisted in the 7th South Carolina Volunteers. James went to Northern Virginia, continuing to write home about his surroundings and life of a Confederate soldier from July, 1861, until August 1862. An introductory chapter gives a brief history of the family.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRichard L.

This area included the western Carolinas and Virginia, the entire Ohio River Valley, and parts of the Mississippi River Valley. Letters and interviews in his collection date from the 1840s to 1891, with an emphasis on the western frontier (Kentucky). In this work, letters, interviews, military correspondence and other documents are selected from volumes 4 through 13 of the Boone Papers. Extracts from these ten volumes include more than eighty first-hand accounts. Draper's correspondents relate their stories of Indian captives, raids on isolated cabins, and prolonged sieges on the Kentucky forts. The mythology of Boone is somewhat balanced by Draper's correspondents, many of whom knew Boone personally. The purpose of this work is not to make a complete transcription. Selected letters and interviews have been extracted\/transcribed to make available some of the most valuable accounts of a vital era in our history and to make more widely available Lyman Draper's tribute to Daniel Boone and those he called the \"warrior-pioneers.\" These same pioneers, hearing of Boone's adventures, became adventurers and defenders of the frontier as well — some as far west as California.

The author has also included a section on officers in the hospital and men of the Frigate South Carolina to whom certificates had been awarded.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJanie Revill\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e(1941), 2021, paper, 387 pp.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eISBN: 9781639140176\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e117-SC13\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Southern Historical Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39890609963126,"sku":"117-SC13","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1654\/3033\/files\/117-sc13-1500px.png?v=1776888679"},{"product_id":"102-5135","title":"South Carolina Provincial Troops Named in Papers of the First Council of Safety of the Revolutionary Party in South Carolina, June-November, 1775","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn June of 1775 the first Provincial Congress of South Carolina appointed a Council of Safety to administer the affairs of the Province. At the same time it provided for the formation of three regiments of regular troops. Charged with the responsibility of defending the Province against British incursion, the Council of Safety was empowered to raise the three required regiments. This work is a collection of the papers of the First Council of Safety for the period from June-November 1775, and it reflects the preoccupations of the Council in raising the proposed regiments.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe vast bulk of the work consists of rosters of the several thousand men who composed the three regiments, their names appearing in pay rolls, muster rolls, and returns of the various volunteer companies of foot and rangers. In addition, the book includes the text of sundry petitions for the raising of volunteer companies and lists of staff officer nominations. The remainder of the papers of the Council consists of general correspondence and records of business. Researchers should bear in mind the likelihood that the majority of troops named in these rosters saw service in the Revolution and can be officially credited to South Carolina's Revolutionary honors.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAlexander S.
