<B>1781 <I>New Jersey Gazette</B></I></B></I> <B>Newspaper.</B></I> September 19, 1781, Trenton, New Jersey, four pages, 9" x 14.5", one of the earliest published accounts of the Battle of the Virginia Capes. The <I>New Jersey Gazette</B></I> was the state's first newspaper, established in December 1777 by Isaac Collins of Burlington to support the patriot cause in the American Revolution. This fine and news-heavy edition contains reports on a variety of engagements and troop movements including a vivid, first-hand description of a British raid commanded by notorious turncoat Benedict Arnold. A truly wonderful account, vividly evoking the excitement of the moment. Exactly a month after the publication of this paper, Cornwallis would surrender at Yorktown, dealing a final blow to British ambitions to subdue her rebellious colonies. Overall very clean with only a few lightly scattered foxed spots at top of first page. Margin at left slightly irregular, else very fine condition.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Books & Catalogs (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
