Synopsis

The Sullivan Expedition is considered by many to be the most significant military campaign of the American Revolution. The expedition was seen by George Washington as a necessity for ridding the colonial frontier of the Indian threat, and from the assaults by the infamous Butler’s Rangers. Washington’s method was to clear western New York of the Indians by destroying their crops and villages forcing thousands of Native Americans to flee to Fort Niagara for refuge. Under the leadership of Maj. Gen. John Sullivan and aided by Gens. Clinton, Maxwell, and Hand, nearly 5,000 men crossed the western Finger Lakes destroying over fifty Indian settlements and burning thousands of acres of crops, The most well-known event of Sullivan’s Expedition occurred near Conesus Lake; the capturing of two men Lt. Thomas Boyd and Sgt. Michael Parker, their horrific tortures and deaths. Rob Thompson in Behold and Blush-The Sullivan Expedition continues to show incredible research abilities. His work is a high-quality journey for the novice and experienced student of the Revolutionary War. This compilation enhanced by in-depth research is a fine, easy-to-read book and one that will certainly encourage further study by all who read it.
