Sergeant William Jasper is a historical biography written by Charles Colcock Jones Jr. and published in 1876. The book tells the story of William Jasper, a soldier who fought in the American Revolutionary War. Jasper is known for his bravery and heroism during the Battle of Fort Moultrie in 1776, where he is said to have rescued the American flag after it was shot down and held it up until a replacement could be found. The book provides a detailed account of Jasper's life, from his early years in South Carolina to his enlistment in the Continental Army. It also covers his military career, including his involvement in several battles and his rise to the rank of sergeant. Jones Jr. draws on historical records and personal accounts to paint a vivid picture of Jasper's character and accomplishments. In addition to Jasper's story, the book also provides a glimpse into the larger context of the Revolutionary War and the struggles faced by the American colonists. Jones Jr. explores the political and social climate of the time, as well as the military tactics and strategies employed by both sides. Overall, Sergeant William Jasper is a well-researched and engaging biography that offers readers a fascinating look into the life of a true American hero.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
