February 01, 1776
THE TOWN & COUNTRY MAGAZINE, London, February 1776 Perhaps the most noteworthy article is found near the back under the heading: "AMERICA", which has pre-war reports from Newport, Rhode Island, New York, and Savannah.
The latter tells of a battle that occurred near Ninety-Six, South Carolina, the previous November, now referred to as the "First Battle of Ninety-Six". It was the first land battle of the Revolutionary War to be fought in the South.
. Also included is a 3 1/2 page detailed article headed: "The Present State of America" which is very descriptive of portions of Canada. It is part of a continued article.
This issue has two full-page plates with related articles, plus various articles reporting on the Revolutionary War in America, as can be seen in the photos.
Certainly one of the less common titles from the Revolutionary War, but a format & layout much like the more common 'Gentleman's Magazine".
Full title/content page, 56 pages, 5 1/4 by 8 1/4 inches, great condition.
