Omschrijving

Gilman of Redford is a historical fiction novel set in Boston and Harvard College in the years leading up to the American Revolutionary War. The story follows the life of a young man named Gilman, who is a student at Harvard and comes from a wealthy family in Redford. As tensions rise between the American colonies and the British government, Gilman finds himself torn between his loyalty to his family and his desire to fight for American independence.Throughout the book, readers are transported to the bustling streets of Boston, where they witness the Boston Tea Party, the Boston Massacre, and other pivotal events that shaped the course of American history. They also get a glimpse into the daily life of a Harvard student in the 1770s, including the rigorous academic curriculum, the social hierarchy among students, and the various extracurricular activities available to them.The author, William Stearns Davis, is a renowned historian and scholar of American history. His meticulous research and attention to detail are evident throughout the book, as he weaves together historical facts and fictional characters to create a compelling narrative. Gilman of Redford is a must-read for anyone interested in the American Revolution, Harvard College, or the history of Boston.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
