Lee, Henry (Light Horse Harry Lee). The American Revolution in the South Arno Press,
1969, Reprint, Hardcover,
Very Good in Very Good dust jacket Reprinted from an 1869 original, on its centennial, in the Harvard Library. Originally published as "Memoirs of the War in the Southern Department. Fine/Fine. A beautiful copy. It has three minor flaws: some bumping and a small tear at the top of the front DJ. A small amount of browning on the tops of some pages. The spine has a slight separation from the binding. The book was owned by an Historian, and he put a penmark next to a short paragraph that he must have used in a book. The pages are extremely tight and white, easy to read. 620 Pages: One of the most fascinating elements of the book is that the Editor was the Author's son, Robert E. Lee. He also wrote a biography of his father which is included as part of the text. The book notes, "One of history's famed patriots, Washington's intimate friend, gives his personal account of the Revolution he helped to make. From the flyleaf: "Light Horse Harry Lee, who numbered Lafayette among his admirers, was an intimate of George Washington, a patriot, soldier, historian of the Revolution, orator and statesman of the Republic. He commanded three troops of cavalry and three companies of infantry known as 'Lee's Legion. His narrative begins with the third year of the war, 'for the principal events which occurred thereafter, laid the foundation of the change in the enemy's conduct, and turned the tide and fury of the conflict from the North to the South." Extensive appendix. 8vo; 629 pages
