Description: This book provides a deeper insight into the journey of Marquis de Lafayette and his role in the American Revolution. Written by the author after years of painstaking research through private papers and collections, the book highlights the efforts of Lafayette in supporting the American cause at the French Court of Versailles during a decisive year in America's fight for independence. It was Lafayette's unrelenting drive to bring America's struggle to light before the French Cabinet, specifically the Comte de Vergennes, which contributed heavily to the development of a vital alliance between France and America. The author's careful research sheds light on the numerous ways France supported America's fight for independence, such as financial aid and even soldiers and sailors to serve under the command of General Washington. The book's exploration of the history behind the alliance between France and the United States in the American Revolution presents a unique perspective on this pivotal moment in American history.
