Excerpt from The Revolutionary Services of John Greenwood of Boston and New York: 1775-1783
This record of the Revolutionary services of John Greenwood, of which his grandson, Isaac John Greenwood, is the editor and annotator, was ready for the press at the time of the latter"s death. Publication has been delayed, first by the production of another book giving the Revolutionary record of Captain John Manley, of which Mr. Greenwood was the author, and later by the entry of the United States into the World War, which directed all energies to matters of immediate concern. This limited edition is now published in accordance with the editor"s wishes, and it is peculiarly fitting that this simple record of a gentleman"s services in America"s first war should appear just after the country has emerged victorious from the greatest war the world has ever known.
