In Patriots in Exile, James Waring McCrady and C.L. Bragg chronicle the banishment of these elite southerners, the hardships endured by their families, and the plight of the enslaved men and women who accompanied them, as well as the motives of their British captors. McCrady and Bragg thoroughly examine the exile from the standpoint of the British who governed occupied Charleston, the families left behind, the armies in the field, the Continental Congress, and finally the Jacksonboro Assembly of January and February 1782. Using primary sources and archival materials, the authors develop biographical sketches of each exile and illuminate important facets of the American Revolution's southern theater. While they shared a common fate, the exiles were a diverse lot of tradesmen, artisans, prominent civilians, and military officers--among them three signers of the Declaration of Independence. Although they had clear socioeconomic differences, most were unrepentant patriots. In this first comprehensive examination and narrative history of these patriots, McCrady and Bragg reveal how the exiles navigated their new surroundings within the context of a revolutionary conflict that involved various imperial powers of the Old World--Britain, France, and Spain--and American colonists seeking to create an independent nation"--|cProvided by publisher. 588 Description based on online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on July 08, 2020). 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 647 7 American Revolution|c(United States :|d1775-1783)|2fast |0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1351668 648 7 18th century|2fast 648 7 1700-1799|2fast 650 0 Exiles|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85046366 |zSouth Carolina|zCharleston|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n79022924-781|xHistory|y18th century. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002006124 650 0 Exiles|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85046366 |zFlorida|zSaint Augustine|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /names/n79095312-781|xHistory|y18th century.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002006124 650 7 Exiles.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/918139 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 650 7 HISTORY / United States / Revolutionary Period (1775-1800) |2bisacsh 651 0 Charleston (S.C.)|xHistory|yRevolution, 1775-1783.|0https: //id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85022688 651 0 Saint Augustine (Fla.)|xHistory|yRevolution, 1775-1783. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85116556 651 7 South Carolina|zCharleston.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org /fast/1204603 651 7 Florida|zSaint Augustine.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1206165 651 7 United States.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204155 655 0 Electronic books. 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 700 1 Bragg, C.
