| Summary | "Washington and the American Republic, Vol. 3" by Benson John Lossing is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This volume focuses on the events surrounding the latter part of the American Revolutionary War, detailing the actions of key figures, including George Washington, as they navigated the complex landscape of military engagements, political maneuvering, and the path to independence. The book is part of an extensive work, reflecting on Washington's leadership and the formation of the American Republic. At the start of this volume, the narrative begins with Washington receiving news from General Greene regarding military engagements in the South. The chapter delves into specific battles and strategies, such as the siege of Fort Ninety-Six and the conflict at Eutaw Springs, emphasizing the British retreats and American advances. It also touches on personal elements in Washington's life, including his deep sorrow over the death of his adopted stepson, John Parke Custis, and his concerns about the army's morale and future as the war drew to a close, illustrating the intersection of public duty and personal grief in Washington’s life during this pivotal period.
