A thrilling story of the times that tried men's souls. It may safely be claimed that without Major General Baron von Steuben's invaluable assistance, experience and wise counsel during the American Revolution the history of our country might perhaps read very differently. This book tells the fascinating story of Steuben and his achievements, and will appeal strongly to all those who have respect for a genuine manhood, efficiency and valor. A knight without fear and without reproach, Steuben is one of the most heroic figures in American history. Illustrated.
