Not only did they administer the war through General Washington, they also governed the thirteen colonies which considered themselves autonomous states. This book contains copies of the original minutes of the governing body; the reader can follow the daily problems that beset them. Over 2,200 colonists' names are included in the index.

Struggle was part of life and affected most families, but it also built character and produced individuals who are worthy of remembering and celebrating with a written remembrance.

He had been there alone for fifteen days. His side of bacon was eaten, and the sack of corn getting very low. The Rangers were as much delighted as if it had been a human being they had rescued.
