Letters of a Westchester Farmer, 1774-1775 - Hardcover

by Samuel Seabury (Author), Clarence H. Vance (Editor), Dixon Ryan Fox (Foreword by)

""Letters of a Westchester Farmer, 1774-1775"" is a collection of letters written by Samuel Seabury, a farmer from Westchester, New York, during the years leading up to the American Revolution. In these letters, Seabury expresses his opinions on the political events of the time, including the Boston Tea Party and the First Continental Congress. He argues against the idea of American independence from Britain, instead advocating for reconciliation and a return to the previous relationship between the colonies and the mother country. Seabury's letters provide valuable insight into the political and social climate of colonial America, as well as the perspectives of those who opposed the revolutionary cause.Westchester County Historical Society V8.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
