ResumoA defense of General Shirley's conduct of operations during the war. "In this work Mr. Livingston is said, I know not on what authority, to have been assisted by William Smith and John Morine [!] Scott. For the facts which it contains, he was probably indebted to his brother-in-law, Mr. Alexander, afterwards Lord Stirling, who was about this time secretary to General Shirley."--Sedgwick, T. A memoir of the life of William Livingston, New York, 1833, p. 114. Book.
