Publisher's Synopsis
"The Record of the Court at Upland," covering the period 1676 to 1681, offers a unique glimpse into the legal and social landscape of early Pennsylvania. This historical document provides invaluable insights into the administration of justice and the daily lives of settlers during a formative era in American history. Supplementing this record is a military journal kept by Major E. Denny from 1781 to 1795, detailing his experiences and observations during a crucial period in the nation's early military development. This journal offers a firsthand account of military life and the challenges faced by soldiers in the late 18th century.
Together, these two accounts provide a rich tapestry of historical information, appealing to historians, genealogists, and anyone interested in early American history and military affairs.
