The Loyalists in the American Revolution by Claude Halstead Van Tyne, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

The author looks at the formation of the Tory or Loyalist party in the American Revolution, its persecution, the banishment (or death) of over 100, 000 of these most conservative and respectable Americans, and the consequences of their banishment. In numbers, historically it is only comparable to the fates of the Moors of Spain and the Huguenots of France. This was the first book by the famous historian Claude Halstead van Tyne (1869-1930), who was a Michigan and Pennsylvania professor and author who wrote extensively on the American Revolution. | The Loyalists in the American Revolution by Claude Halstead Van Tyne, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
