Description:
Orig. pub. New York 1888. Reprinted 1974. Print on Demand Edition 2015. (ii), xvi, 344 pp., map, index In his trilogy about the men who settled the Old Southwest, the author develops the thesis that these men, under the leadership of John Sevier, Isaac Shelby, and James Robertson, not only planted a civilization beyond the Alleghenies but exerted an important influence in shaping the ultimate destinies of this country. Two of these men, Sevier and Shelby, during the Revolution helped thwart the British plan to envelop and crush the Southern Colonies and then helped turn the tide of the Revolution at the Battle of King's Mountain. Acting together after the Revolution, the three men frustrated Spain's design to weaken the Union by creating a separate republic between the Allegheny Mountains and the Mississippi River. Had that plan been successful, it would have kept the vast region beyond the Mississippi a Spanish province. This work is the third and concluding volume of Gilmore's trilogy about…

Description:
Orig. pub. Philadelphia 1824. Reprinted 1975. Print on Demand Edition 2019. (vi), 511, xlvii pp. Henry Lee published this work in response to aspersions cast upon his father, "Light Horse" Harry Lee, by chroniclers of the American Revolution, in particular Justice William Johnson of South Carolina. Notwithstanding the son's obvious bias, the volume is a standard source for the history of the Revolution in the South. The author covers background events in the life of General Nathanael Greene, and stresses heavily the activities of Lee in South Carolina, at Guilford Court House, in overall relation to the Southern Strategy, at Augusta, at Eutaw Springs, and at John's Island. The Appendix contains correspondence between Washington, Greene, Lafayette, Lee, and others and is especially revealing as to the character of the officers involved and the concerns of some over the necessity of maintaining the public morale.

Description:
Orig. pub. Baltimore 1894. Reprinted 1971, 1992. Print on Demand Edition 2009. 136 pp. The North Carolina coast in the colonial period furnished a haven for pirates, for its inlets and islands enabled those overly romanticized brigands, who preyed on the extensive shipping industry of Charleston, South Carolina, to escape pursuit. Drawn from colonial records and legislation, this book gives an authentic presentation of the pirate problem as it confronted not only North Carolina but also South Carolina and to a certain extent Virginia. One in a series of monographs under the auspices of Johns Hopkins University and the general editorship of Herbert Baxter Adams, this volume remains a standard source for those interested in both the glamour and the social consequences of piracy The author examines how the pirates arose, how they were regarded by the colonists and English authorities, how they affected life and commerce, and how they were exterminated. This presentation is enlivened with accounts of two…

Description:
Orig. pub. Raleigh 1920. Reprinted 1973. Print on Demand Edition 2010. (vi), 434 pp., map, index This is an account of the efforts of Baron Christoph von Graffenried, along with a partner, to settle a colony of German Palatines and Swiss in 1710 on the tongue of land he acquired between the Trent and Neuse rivers. It would be called New Bern in honor of his native home in Bern, Switzerland. The first one hundred pages of text is a substantive historical introduction by Editor Todd. That essay is followed by von Graffenried's own account in German with an English translation and parts of his French text and translation that differ from the German. The colonists could not have come at a more unfortunate time and von Graffenried's utmost efforts could do little to relieve the situation. The province was in the midst of internal strife and this trouble was barely settled before the Tuscarora Indian War broke out. Finally, in desperation, von Graffenried went to Virginia to try to arrange for their…

Orig. pub. Raleigh NC 1890. Reprinted 1973. Print on Demand Edition 2021. (ii), (iv), 242 pp. Gen. Hugh Waddell was a leading colonial and military official in North Carolina during the French and Indian War. This book, written by his great-grandson, Alfred Moore Waddell, gives much detail of his activities during the progress of the French and Indian War in the Southern colonies. While concentrating on North Carolina, there is information on his involvement in Virginia and South Carolina as well. His important role in resisting the landing of stamps during the Stamp Act crisis in 1765 is described in full. He also took part in leading troops against the Regulators but then later was critical of Governor Tryon for his harsh treatment in dealing with the rebels. Waddell died at an early age but he is still an important figure for his pre-Revolutionary activities. He was born in Lisburn, County Down, Ireland, the son of Hugh and Isabella Brown Waddell, both of Scots-Irish ancestry. He married Mary…

Orig. pub. Mobile 1890. Reprinted 1975, 1988 from 1892 ed.. Print on Demand Edition 2011. (ii), 12, 376 pp., frontis DeLeon, an accomplished author, wrote this book almost immediately after the war, revising and condensing notes and recollections gathered during its most trying times. The book is unique in that DeLeon experienced many events that other writers of the times largely glossed over. As a civilian, he wrote of the politics of the Confederacy and described many of the tensions within the government. He omits the campaigns and battles which he did not see and which have been the subject of so many writings. Instead he had the object of trying to paint honestly the inner life of the South and what was going on in its cities and towns as the war waged on. Geographically, it covers the war throughout the South but with the largest emphasis on happenings in Alabama and Virginia.

Orig. pub. Richmond VA 1930. Reprinted 2002. Print on Demand Edition 2013. xviii, 644 pp., illus. In this extensive family history, the author tried to do more than write a mere record of births, deaths, and marriages. Working with wills, deeds, and biographical items, he endeavored to present a picture of an English family starting at the time of Domesday and following its fortunes to the 1930s. The Throckmorton family origins were at Throckmorton, Worcestershire, and they possessed land there that they had held at the time of the Norman Conquest. It is one of the Roman Catholic families of England but both John Throckmorton who settled in New England in 1631 and Robert Throckmorton who came to Virginia in 1637 were of the Protestant faith. Allied families include: Bynum, Besford, Wickliffe, Cocton, Brule´, Bonnycastle, Durvassal, Robinson, Spine, Olney, Pendleton, Vaulx, Barclay, Yates, Herbert, Blennerhassett, Woolley, Beckham, Courtney, Gifford, Louthe, Preston, Playter, Beaufo, Colston,…

Description:
Orig. pub. London 1779. Reprinted 1962, 1971. Print on Demand Edition 2015. The set Dr. Alexander Hewatt (or Hewat) is known as the first historian of South Carolina and is best known for this two-volume work. He was a Presbyterian minister in Charleston from 1763 to 1777. Not sympathetic with the Patriot cause, he returned to England in 1775 but remained interested in South Carolina until his death in 1828. While the books are primarily South Carolina material with a strong Charleston and lowcountry emphasis, he also devotes considerable space to Virginia, North Carolina as a part of the Carolinas colony, and Georgia, in particular in Volume II. His history includes observations of the peoples of the area, accounts of slaves and the institution of slavery, and accounts of the Indians. He pays due attention to agriculture and economics in the colony. In his discussion of political events, he was obviously biased against the Proprietors and the Anglican Church but for the Royal government and the…

He was a lawyer, Episcopal priest, and college president. According to the late North Carolina historian, Dr. Hugh T. Lefler, "He had the broadest scholarship and literary attainments of any of the nineteenth-century North Carolina historians. . . .his two-volume history is of high quality, scholarly, original, and according to a competent contemporary reviewer remarkably sound and accurate." Volume One reprints many rare and valuable documents including the Raleigh charter of 1584, Barlowe's narrative, the account of the Grenville expedition, and Thomas Hariot's narrative, all dealing with the four separate expeditions (1584-1590) sent out by Sir Walter Raleigh to settle "Virginia." Although these expeditions ended up on the North Carolina coast, they helped lay the groundwork for the first permanent settlement at Jamestown twenty years later. Hawks's…

Print on Demand Edition 2011. xv, 17-612 pp., index + illus., maps The Battle of King's Mountain, October 7, 1780, turned the tide of the Revolution in the South, bringing to an end many months of British occupation in the Carolinas and Georgia. Draper's classic account of this important battle includes early background events, notes of the life of British commander Patrick Ferguson, other upcountry skirmishes and battles, and finally a lengthy account of the battle itself. To write this definitive history of the battle, Draper sought out and interviewed witnesses and relatives of witnesses, and collected original letters, accounts of the battle, and other primary documents. Biographical information on the leaders and officers make this a valuable book for genealogists as considerable genealogical data was gathered from the records of Virginia, North and South Carolina, Tennessee, and Georgia.
