Hope Restored: The American Revolution and the Founding of New Brunswick
Hope Restored: The American Revolution and the Founding of New Brunswick by Robert L. Dallison - $16 (taxes included)
A Goose Lane Editions and New Brunswick Military Heritage Project Publication.
"In April, 1775, the first shots of the American Revolutionary War were fired. They reverberated in what later became New Brunswick, when recent immigrants from New England rose in rebellion. The British moved quickly to crush these rebels, and after the war they made the new frontier with the United States secure by settling Loyalist regiments throughout the area. The result of this wave of British American settlers was the establishment of New Brunswick as a separate colony in 1784.
The motto of the Loyalist, Spem reduxit - Latin for "hope restored" - became the motto of the province they founded. Hope Restored tells the story of the Loyalist regiment that settled New Brunswick, describing their Revolutionary War exploits, the colorful and influential people who came with them to New Brunswick, and the part of their legacy that can be seen today"
