Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book commemorates the 100th anniversary of the Battle of Groton Heights, a conflict that occurred on the soil of Connecticut and was the only battle fought in the state during the War of Independence. It explores the historical context of the battle, particularly in relation to the American Revolution, and gives an overview of the events leading up to and during the battle. The author delves into the brutality and barbarity of the massacre that followed the battle, arguing that it was an unexampled event and contrary to civilized warfare. The book also highlights the heroic efforts of the American soldiers, particularly Colonel William Ledyard and Captain Adam Shapley. Furthermore, it examines the role of the state of Connecticut in the war and discusses the significance of the battle in relation to other events of the American Revolution, such as the Battle of Bunker Hill and the siege of Yorktown. Through this detailed analysis, the book provides a comprehensive account of the battle and its wider implications, offering readers a deeper understanding of this significant historical event and its lasting legacy.
