À propos de cet audio
In this episode, our host Professor Robert Allison welcomes historian and educator Sean Heuvel, Director of Graduate and Professional Enrollment at Christopher Newport University, for a spirited exploration of the newly edited Revolutionary War Memoirs of General William Heath. Together they stroll through Heath’s vivid accounts of the Siege of Boston, the New York campaign, the intrigues of command, and the quiet burdens shouldered by a Massachusetts gentleman-general whose pen was often as sharp as his sword.
Heuvel shares why Heath’s memoirs remain an essential, underappreciated window into the Revolution’s early campaigns and the personalities who shaped them. With fresh annotations, contextual framing, and a keen editorial eye, Heuvel illuminates Heath not as a footnote, but as a thoughtful architect of the Continental cause.
It’s a conversation that lifts a lantern toward the lesser-known corners of the war and reminds us that every revolution depends on more than its marquee heroes. Tune in and meet General Heath anew.
