1842 Revolutionary War Major Moses Van Campen American Soldier Border Adventures

Item Details

Description

1842 Revolutionary War Major Moses Van Campen American Soldier Border Adventures

â€œSketches of Border Adventures” by John Niles Hubbard is a historical biography that recounts the life and experiences of his grandfather, Major Moses Van Campen, a soldier of the American Revolution known for his bravery and dedication in fighting against Native American incursions on the border settlements. The book aims to preserve the lesser-known stories of minor officers like Van Campen, who played crucial roles in securing Americas independence, and to ensure their contributions are remembered and honored.

Hubbards work not only highlights the personal experiences of Major Van Campen but also seeks to add a new dimension to the history of border warfare during the revolution. The books content is primarily based on accounts provided by Van Campen himself, lending credibility to the events described. Additionally, the author includes a chapter discussing the causes that led to the American Revolution.
