The Revolutionary War in the Hackensack Valley

the Jersey Dutch and the neutral ground, 1775-1783

After November 1776, the Hackensack Valley -- located in northeastern New Jersey and Rockland County, New York -- lay between the invading British army in New York City and the main Continental defense forces in the Hudson Highlands. Jersey Dutch patriot and Tory troops carried on a five-year war of neighbors between the lines, while the grand armies of Britain and America maneuvered on either side of them for a chance to strike a blow at the other. Adrian Leiby offers an exciting narrative of the people of Dutch New Jersey and New York during this conflict. Historians will find colorful details about the Revolutionary War, and genealogists will find much previously unpublished material on hundreds of men and women of Dutch New Jersey and New York in the 1700s. - Back cover.
