Book Synopsis Henry Knox to Lucy Knox about Their Separation and Possible Meeting in the Winter Plus is Motivation for Serving, 22 November 1776 by : Henry Knox
Book excerpt: Assures her that their separation will not be as long as she fears, that they will soon be together again, and that he loves her deeply. Explains why he must stay at war and away from her, saying: My obedience in this point interrupts our happiness for the present in order to secure it more effectually. Writes that the British have arrived near Fort Lee, and expects they will attack it soon. Reports that the Continental Congress has not taken care of his artillery unit. Hopes to see her in four weeks, assuming the British move to winter quarters. Expects that his brother will be with her shortly.
