June 26, 1777

THE LONDON EVENING POST, England, June 26, 1777  The front page contains General Howe's official account of the Battles at Danbury and Ridgefield, being his letter to Lord George Germain dated at New York. Included is a very lengthy list of the captures from the battle, as well as the list of killed, wounded & missing at the battles.
Page 2 begins with a report on the actions at Ticonderoga and Lake Champlain, with good detail.
There is loss at the upper left corner but fortunately not affecting any American-related content. Otherwise four pages, folio size, never-trimmed margins, red tax stamp on page 3.
