Samuel Johnson. The King's
attitude is found in Donne, "Correspondence of George III with
Lord North", 1768-83, 2 vols. (1867). Stirling, "Coke of Norfolk
and his Friends", 2 vols. (1908), gives the outlook of a Whig
magnate; Fitzmaurice, "Life of William, Earl of Shelburne", 2
vols. (1912), the Whig policy. Curwen's "Journals and Letters",
1775-84 (1842), show us a Loyalist exile in England. Hazelton's
"The Declaration of Independence, its History" (1906), is an
elaborate study.
CHAPTERS IV, V, AND VI.
The three campaigns--New York, Philadelphia, and the Hudson--are
covered by C. F. Adams, "Studies Military and Diplomatic" (1911),
which makes severe strictures on Washington's strategy; H. P.
Johnston's "Campaign of 1776 around New York and Brooklyn," in
the Long Island Historical Society's "Memoirs", and "Battle of
Harlem Heights" (1897); Carrington, "Battles of the American
Revolution" (1904); Stryker, "The Battles of Trenton and
Princeton" (1898); Lucas, "History of Canada" (1909).
Fonblanque's "John Burgoyne" (1876) is a defense of that leader;
while Riedesel's "Letters and Journals Relating to the War of the
American Revolution" (trans. W. L. Stone, 1867) and Anburey's
"Travels through the Interior Parts of America" (1789) are
accounts by eye-witnesses.
