Valcour By Jack Kelly free pdf book download from here. “Valcour”, penned by Jack Kelly, offers a gripping narrative of a crucial campaign in 1776 that significantly influenced the course of the Revolutionary War. The narrative is set in the summer of 1776, a time when a British invasion from Canada was looming. In response to this threat, the newly independent nation’s citizen-soldiers rose to the occasion with a valiant defense.
The northern campaign of 1776 was spearheaded by the underappreciated General Philip Schuyler (who was also Hamilton’s father-in-law), the ambitious ex-British officer Horatio Gates, and the infamous Benedict Arnold. In anticipation of the impending invasion, patriots built a small fleet of gunboats on Lake Champlain in the northern region.
