""A History Of The Society Of The Sons Of St. George"" by Theodore Christian Knauff is a comprehensive account of the establishment and development of the Society of the Sons of St. George. This society was formed in the early 1800s in the United States, by a group of English immigrants who wanted to preserve their cultural heritage and promote the welfare of their fellow Englishmen in America.The book traces the history of the society from its origins in New York City, through its expansion across the United States and Canada, and up to the present day. It explores the various activities and initiatives undertaken by the society, including the establishment of schools, libraries, and hospitals, as well as the organization of social events and cultural celebrations.Throughout the book, Knauff provides detailed accounts of the key figures and events that shaped the society's history, as well as the challenges and obstacles that it faced along the way. He also offers insights into the broader social, economic, and political context in which the society operated, highlighting the ways in which it both reflected and influenced the changing landscape of America over the course of the 19th and 20th centuries.Overall, ""A History Of The Society Of The Sons Of St. George"" is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in the history of English immigration to the United States, as well as the role of cultural organizations in shaping American society over time.Established At Philadelphia, For The Advice And Assistance Of Englishmen In Distress, On St. George's Day, April 23, 1772, With The Several Charters Of The Society, The First And The Present By-Laws, Complete Alphabetical List Of Members From 1772 To 1923, A List Of The Officers For The One Hundred And Fifty One Years, The Complete Story Of The Sully Portrait Of Queen Victoria And The Impressions Of A Steward.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
