  • 'Deprived of Their Liberty'
    'DEPRIVED OF THEIR LIBERTY': ENEMY PRISONERS AND THE CULTURE OF WAR IN REVOLUTIONARY AMERICA, 1775-1783 by Trenton Cole Jones A dissertation submitted to Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Baltimore, Maryland June, 2014 © 2014 Trenton Cole Jones All Rights Reserved Abstract Deprived of Their Liberty explores Americans' changing conceptions of legitimate wartime violence by analyzing how the revolutionaries treated their captured enemies, and by asking what their treatment can tell us about the American Revolution more broadly. I suggest that at the commencement of conflict, the revolutionary leadership sought to contain the violence of war according to the prevailing customs of warfare in Europe. These rules of war—or to phrase it differently, the cultural norms of war— emphasized restricting the violence of war to the battlefield and treating enemy prisoners humanely. Only six years later, however, captured British soldiers and seamen, as well as civilian loyalists, languished on board noisome prison ships in Massachusetts and New York, in the lead mines of Connecticut, the jails of Pennsylvania, and the camps of Virginia and Maryland, where they were deprived of their liberty and often their lives by the very government purporting to defend those inalienable rights. My dissertation explores this curious, and heretofore largely unrecognized, transformation in the revolutionaries' conduct of war by looking at the experience of captivity in American hands. Throughout the dissertation, I suggest three principal factors to account for the escalation of violence during the war. From the onset of hostilities, the revolutionaries encountered an obstinate enemy that denied them the status of legitimate combatants, labeling them as rebels and traitors.

  • VUNTUT NATIONAL PARK Management Planning Program
    PROUDLY BRINGING YOU CANADA AT ITS BEST VUNTUT NATIONAL PARK Management Planning Program NEWSLETTER #1 OCTOBER, 2000 INTRODUCTION This newsletter launches the development of the first management plan for Vuntut National Park. The national park was established in 1995 under Chapter 10 of the Vuntut Gwitchin First Nation Final Agreement (VGFNFA). Interim Management Guidelines were approved in April, 2000 and provide management direction until a Management Plan is approved. Parks Canada, the North Yukon Renewable Resources Council (NYRRC) and the Vuntut Gwitchin government work cooperatively to manage the park. All three parties are represented on the planning team. The Management Plan will provide long term strategic direction for the management of the park to ensure ecological integrity and continued Vuntut Gwitchin traditional opportunities on the land. The Management Plan is required by legislation, guided by public consultation, developed by a planning team of cooperative managers, approved by the Minister of Canadian Heritage and tabled in Parliament. Once approved, the Management Plan will be reviewed every five years. This is your opportunity to assist in defining and achieving a future vision for Vuntut National Park. Public Participation Public input is a key element of the planning process. During the Arctic National development of the Management Plan, Wildlife newsletters and Public Open Houses Refuge will be the main methods used to share information. Meetings with Old Inuvik stakeholders will also provide valuable Crow input into the process. Vuntut The Planning Team members want to Anchorage hear from you. The first management Dawson City plan developed for a national park is critical as it will shape the future of the park.
