In particular, this volume recounts many stories involving Summerseat, a structure that served as headquarters to General Washington in the winter of 1776 and as a home to American foreign consul Thomas Barclay and to Robert Morris (1791-98) and George Clymer (1798-1805), signers of both the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. Besides just political figures, Morrisville has also been home to many contemporary personalities who have risen to national prominence in the sports arena and in the fine arts community. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e James Murray\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0738590207\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780738590202\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Arcadia Publishing (SC)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/1997\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.68lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.25h x 6.53w x 0.42d","brand":"James Murray","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44059584987391,"sku":"9780738590202","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0289a7a5-40c0-4bcb-8253-a584e8ba3cd7.jpg?v=1685059115","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/morrisville-james-murray-9780738590202","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
