1853. The Romance of the Revolution Being a History of the Personal Adventures Heroic Exploits and Romantic Incidents as Enacted in the War of Independence. The leading events of the War of Independence, are familiar to every American; but there has been much recorded of stirring incident which is not familiar to the American people, and much remains yet to be disclosed, connected with even the prominent actors in the drama From time to time, during the last fifty years, various sketches have appeared, recounting strange passages in the war; and these sketches have been sometimes replete with extraordinary adventure and romantic situation of the most novel and thrilling kind; but they have never, till now, been collected in any permanent form, and have been in danger, from merely appearing in the transitory periodicals of the day, of passing into utter oblivion. And, to preserve these legendary pictures from such oblivion, and to perpetuate them in the affections of the American people, was the object of this work; to collect these, and other fragments of history, as combined, would present a history of the romance of the Revolution, and a chronicle of the individual heroism, exploits, and adventures of those engaged in that struggle.
