Böcker av Paul David Nelson

Nelson's "William Alexander, Lord Stirling," (1726-83) is the biographical account of a man who served 18th-century American society as a prominent citizen in peacetime and as a soldier in the Seven Years' War and the American Revolution.

William Tryon's role in the affairs of British America during the last years of the empire, and his inability to stem the collapse of that empire, makes for a fascinating story. This biography covers his life in service to the Crown to the end of the American Revolution.
