Horace Porter Papers by Horace Porter PDF Summary

Book Description: The collection consists of four typescripts presumably written by Porter, although mention of Porter in the paper on John Paul Jones puts this in some doubt. The four papers focus on various aspects of U.S. history. One describes the role of the Maryland regiment of the 79th division in the capture of the French town, Montfaucon, during the first world war. It also includes a history of Montfaucon written by Albert Leriche, the son of the owner of the chateau that the Germans commandeered for their headquarters. Another focuses on the battle of Santiago (Cuba) during the Spanish-American War, and the controversy that arose over which U.S. naval commander deserved credit for the victory. The third discusses John Paul Jones's last days in Paris, and the effort to have his remains removed to the United States. The last paper describes the unlikely friendship which developed between Abigail Adams and Benjamin Franklin
