Each web page is organized into four categories – Memoirs and Diaries, Other Primary Sources, Secondary Sources, and pictures and illustrations. Where applicable, there are links to informative websites and primary source information sources. Periodically, blog posts highlight new Revolutionary Ear books, research, and discoveries of major events and people.

On a more recent note, I put Abraham Hunt on trial. He is the Trenton merchant that entertained and waylaid Hessian Colonel Rall as Washington was closing in for his attack on Trenton. I would like to send you a complimentary copy of my book. My web site is;
