June 01, 1775
THE LONDON CHRONICLE, England, June 1, 1775 A truly terrific issue, as the entire front page and some of page 2 are taken up with eye-witness accounts of the battle of Lexington & Concord, headed: "The Following Affidavits & other Particulars relative to the late Skirmish between his Majesty's Troops "The Following Affidavits & other Particulars relative to the late Skirmish between his Majesty's Troops & the Provincials in Massachusett's Bay were received on Monday last." There are ten such accounts, giving a terrific perspective of the events on that fateful day as viewed by these ten men (see the photos for the complete text). Great to have this content on the front page! And as if this wasn't enough another inside page has an article headed: "The following are a few particulars subsequent to the late skirmish in America:" followed by additional nice content on Lexington & Concord (see photos). Never bound nor trimmed, a small wear hole at a fold junction near the top of the front leaf only affecting about 5 words on pgs. 1 followed by additional nice content on Lexington & Concord (see photos). Never bound nor trimmed, a small wear hole at a fold junction near the top of the front leaf only affecting about 5 words on pgs. 1 & 2, otherwise quite nice.
