Excerpt from The Washington-Crawford Letters: Being the Correspondence Between George Washington and William Crawford, From 1767 to 1781, Concerning Western LandsThe following correspondence, largely a private one, kept up for nearly fourteen years, between Washington and William Crawford, is now given to the public with the belief that, in its revelations of the beginning of western land speculation, and the part taken therein by the writers, a contribution of value is made to American history. Much interest is added to these Letters because of their bringing to light incidents of importance, before but little known, in the earl settlement of the trans-Alleghany region, and in Lord Dunmore's War.Washington's letters, at a later date, to other parties, wherein he particularly describes his western lands, are well calculated to astonish the reader - so large and valuable were the tracts he had secured. The letters of Valentine Crawford will be found curious in their developments concerning Washington's personalty, as well as realty, in the Ohio Valley; and graphic in their allusions to the panic which seized the frontier people upon the commencement of hostilities with the Indians, in 1774. Several links also in the chain of western annals, heretofore considered as lost, are restored by them.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
