Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the life and times of John Howland, a man whose life spanned nearly a century. Born in 1757, Howland was a young man when he witnessed the American Revolution firsthand, fighting at Trenton Bridge, Princeton, and other key battles. After the war, he returned to Providence, Rhode Island, where he became an active citizen, serving in various roles, including town treasurer, and playing a pivotal role in establishing the state's free school system. Howland's life story is not only a fascinating account of one man's journey but also a window into the history of the United States during a transformative period. The author provides insightful commentary on the social, political, and economic changes that shaped Howland's life, offering readers a deeper understanding of the complexities of the American past.
