Produktinformationen zu „They "... Fought Bravely, but Were Unfortunate:" (ePub)“
Rhode Island's "Black Regiment" of the American Revolutionary War is fairly well-known to students of American History. Most published histories of the small colored battalion from Rhode Island are clearly biased in favor of the "regiment" and tend to interpret it as an elite military unit. However, a detailed study and analysis of Rhode Island's segregated Continental Line by the author reveals a "military experiment" that was beset with difficulties from its start and ultimately failed as a segregated unit in 1780. In this work, many of the popular stories of Rhode Island's "Black Regiment" are proven to be myths. Follow the accurate historical stories of the colored and white soldiers of Rhode Island's Continental Line whose courage and sacrifices helped create an independent nation.
Autoren-Porträt von Daniel M. Popek
Born in Providence, Rhode Island, Daniel M. Popek is the son of a career active duty United States Army Officer (retired). After residing in several states in the eastern United States and a foreign country growing up, Daniel lives and works in North Carolina and has a keen interest in Genealogy and American History, particularly military history. He is also concerned about the marked and unmarked burial locations of New England Revolutionary War soldiers, especially those from Rhode Island. Daniel is a member of the Rhode Island Genealogical Society, the Company of Military Historians, and an over 20-year member of the New England Historic Genealogical Society of Boston, Massachusetts. Daniel is a descendant through his mother's family of a "during the war" enlisted soldier who served six years in Rhode Island's Continental Line. This work is his first book.
