摘要附注:

"In August 1777, Peter Gansevoort Jr. defended Fort Schuyler (also known as Fort Stanwix) during a three-week siege by 1,700 British soldiers, Tories and Indians commanded by Colonel Barry St. Leger. Gansevoort won the distinction of successfully resisting a British siege in a period when every other continental post in New York was either evacuated or surrendered. His valiant effort led to the American victory at the Battle of Saratoga, a crucial point of the war. This documentary edition provides 279 pieces of correspondence to and from Gansevoort (and a few others) from 1775 to 1812"--
