In Light-Horse Harry Lee and the Legacy of the American Revolution, Charles Royster takes an ingenious, creative approach in his consideration of the life of one of the American Revolution's heroes.

Having fought valiantly to bring about a victory for the colonies, Henry ("Light-Horse Harry") Lee (1756-1818) envisioned the new country as a virtuous and prosperous classical republic and eventually aligned himself with the Federalist party. He served as governor of Virginia and as a congressman, but he grew increasingly isolated, disillusioned, and bitter as the nation moved in a direction more in line with the Jeffersonian democratic principles. After going bankrupt and then suffering an attack by an angry mob, Lee exiled himself to the West Indies to escape his debts and save his family's honor (including that of his son, the future General Robert E. Lee) and returned to the United States only several weeks before his death.

Royster argues that Lee's tragic life was different only in degree from those of many other patriots of the Revolution who viewed the peacetime fruits of their efforts with disappointment. How Lee, and others like him, shaped the American Revolution and were shaped by it is the theme of this provocative character study.

A Very Nice Lightweight, but Warm Jacket
I was surprised at how light this jacket was when I took it out of the nice box it came in. Despite its light weight, it is still a very warm and cozy jacket. The lining of the jacket is a soft fleece, which is very comfortable. It also allows for easy layering with sweaters and shirts. The lining is very warm and cozy; it's moisture-wicking, as well, which will keep you nice and dry. The outer shell of the jacket is perfect to keep that cold wind out! It also helps with the sun, with a UV protection rating of 30+. It seems very durable, but it is not bulky at all. In fact, the whole jacket stretches a bit for even more comfort and a good fit. Whatever climate you live in, this jacket will provide you warmth and comfort without bulking you up like the Hulk. it's a great little jacket to keep in the car or at the office.

Great Vest
this golf vest is amazing. It’s very well-made. It fits well, I’m a double X and I’m 62 and a slice of pizza from 230 pounds. I just love it and plan to buy more. I believe it’s gonna wear very well, but I’ll let you all know in a month or two after I’ve worn it a couple times and washed it a couple times.

As Advertised!
Product arrived promptly & well-packaged (shrink wrapped packaged & enclosed inside additional box). Golf vest was received "as advertised" & appears to be of good quality. Vest was fairly priced & is very comfy, lightweight, stylish & wrinkle resistant. Purchased as a gift for my adult son for his future golf adventures. Size/fit will need to be determined by my son when he prepares for his next golf outing. Very pleased with my purchase & will consider additional purchases from seller in the future.
