These are the recollections of a Revolutionary War Soldier, Joseph Plumb Martin, who is no kin of mine but who did military duty in some of the same engagements as did my ancestor. I've read a lot about the Revolutionary War but I don't think I've ever seen it from this perspective! Evidently, it wasn't all spit-shined boots and shiney buttons. Food for thought?
