註釋ROBERT KIRK (KIRKWOOD), an enlisted man, served with the 42nd and 77th Highland Regiments in North America. He covered 5000 miles by foot, canoe, whaleboat, and transport ship. He was wounded, captured by Shawnees, and nearly scalped, but he lived to write his memoirs, which are published here for the first time since 1775. This book constitutes a superb team effort with paintings by renowned artist, Robert Griffing; an excellent and insightful introduction by best-selling British historian, Stephen Brumwell; and annotations, biographical notes, and essays by historians, Lt. Col. Ian McCulloch and Timothy Todish.
