- "The appendixes to the first and second volumes comprise miscellaneous letters, designed to contribute additional facts concerning some of the large operations of the war, in which Washington was not engaged, except by a general supervision as Commander-in-chief, but which affected in a greater or less degree his own movements and plans. A few of these letters have been printed before, but they have mostly been taken from originals among the papers of Generals Schuyler, Gates, Lee, Lincoln, Sullivan, Stark, and others." Cf. Pref., v. 1, p. viii.
