Address ... Before the General Society of the Cincinnati on 11 May, 1905 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781175891440)

This address, delivered by John Cropper before the General Society of the Cincinnati on May 11, 1905, offers insights into the legacy and principles of this historic organization. Founded by officers of the Continental Army at the close of the American Revolutionary War, the Society of the Cincinnati sought to perpetuate the bonds of fellowship and ideals of liberty that fueled the fight for independence.

Cropper's address likely delves into the Society's history, its role in preserving the memory of the Revolution, and its continued relevance in early 20th-century America. It serves as a valuable primary source for understanding the enduring impact of the Revolutionary War generation and the ongoing effort to define and uphold the values upon which the nation was founded.
