Though primarily fought in the field, the American Revolution saw fortifications play an important part in some of the key campaigns of the war. Field fortifications were developed around major towns including Boston, New York and Savannah, while the frontier forts at Stanwix, Niagara and Cumberland were to all be touched by the war. This book details all the types of fortification used throughout the conflict, the engineers on all sides who constructed and maintained them, and the actions fought around and over them.

Download The Forts of New France in Northeast America 1600–1763 Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
'New France' consisted of the area colonized and ruled by France in North America. This title takes a look at the lengthy chain of forts built by the French to guard the frontier in the American northeast, including Sorel, Chambly, St Jean, Carillon (Ticonderoga), Duquesne (Pittsburgh, PA), and Vincennes. These forts were of two types: the major stone forts, and other forts made of wood and earth, all of which varied widely in style from Vauban-type elements to cabins surrounded by a stockade. Some forts, such as Chambly, looked more like medieval castles in their earliest incarnations. René Chartrand examines the different types of forts built by the French, describing the strategic vision that led to their construction, their impact upon the British colonies and the Indian nations of the interior, and the French military technology that went into their construction.

Download The Revolutionary History of Fort Number Eight Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Under the title The Revolutionary History of Fort Number Eight, on Morris Heights, New York City, Professor John C. Schwab has privately printed a narrative of the military events of the Revolutionary war on Manhattan Island and in Westchester County, with especial reference to the relation of those transactions to the fortification named, in which local attachments give him special interest. The narrative is carefully constructed out of general materials on the one hand and on the other hand those of a local and private nature; and is illustrated by a map. A brief history of the manor of Fordham precedes. The amount of matter directly relating to Fort Number Eight is not large. --The American Historical Review, Vol. 3
