Valley Forge Orderly Book of General George Weedon
"This book, though described by James Mease as an 'Orderly Book at Valley Forge, ' is much more extended in its scope. Opening at the camp at Neshaminy in Bucks County, Penna., August 20, 1777, it shows the movements of the army through Philadelphia to Brandywine, and the incidents at the various camps at Wilmington, Falls of Schuylkill, Pennypacker's Mills on the Perkiomen, where a council of war determined to risk another battle, Skippack, and Valley Forge, where it closes May 7, 1778.

Southern Brigadier Generals in the Revolutionary War
The stories of Southern brigadier generals during the Revolutionary War remain largely forgotten or untold, but their experiences were unique. During the war, 13 of the 58 brigadier generals (the lowest-ranking generals) who served under George Washington died because of combat wounds or under British captivity. Seven of those 13 hailed from the southernmost and (excepting Virginia) less populated colonies.

George Washington's Enforcers
A well-disciplined army was vital to win American independence, but policing soldiers during the Revolution presented challenges. George Washington’s Enforcers: Policing the Continental Army examines how justice was left to the overlapping duties of special army personnel and how an improvised police force imposed rules and regulations on the common soldier. Historian Harry M. Ward describes these methods of police enforcement, emphasizing the brutality experienced by the enlisted men who were punished severely for even light transgressions.
