The Highland of the Hudson (New York) was crucial during the American Revolution as it was on the path for a Canadian army to attack American forces. Washington and his lieutenants had a significant presence in the area. This monograph reminisces about the author’s activities and locations in the area, primarily in and around Newburgh, New York. Thirty-three illustrations help us visualize the area as it appeared during Washington’s time.
