Fate of Loyalists, and life with America after the war...
THE POLITICAL MAGAZINE, London, June, 1783
- British loyalists in America
- Post Revolutionary War
Certainly one of the less common magazines of the 18th century, formatted very much like the more common 'Gentleman's Magazine' of the day.
Inside includes: "Account of the Large Rebel Frigate, named the South Carolina, from the Laying of Her Keel Until her Capture" which takes a full page. Also: "Emigrations From New York" which is a letter from "Agents for the Loyalists who removed last fall to Nova Scotia, and for such others as may incline to follow them...".
Then: "Memorial of the Provincial Officers to Sir Guy Carleton" and: "Boston Resolve Against the Loyalists - Carleton's Orders - Emigration".
No maps or plates called for are present.
Complete in 80 pages, full title/contents page, 5 by 8 1/4 inches, great condition.
