The most devoted chronicler of the campaign, however, is the younger William L. Stone (b. 1835), who published _Reminiscences of Saratoga and Ballston_ in 1875, an article on "Burgoyne in a new light" in _The Galaxy_ (v. 78), and one on the campaign in _Harper's Monthly_ in 1877 (vol. lv. p. 673), and in the same year the most important work on the subject yet produced, _The Campaign of Lieutenant-General John Burgoyne and the Expedition of Lieutenant-Colonel Barry St. Leger_, which draws from every important help to the study of the military movements which had been so far brought to light. In the next year (1878), Mr. Stone prepared the _Memoir of the Centennial Celebration of Burgoyne's Surrender, Schuylerville, Oct. 17, 1875_. It included an historical address by Mr. Stone himself, others by Horatio Seymour and George William Curtis.[860] The English later writers have been in the main fair in their statements. Mahon (vi. 191), while praising the army of Gates, denies him the merit of its successful conduct, giving it essentially to Stark and Arnold. The American student finds little to question in the unusually impartial narrative embodied in Edward Barrington De Fonblanque's _Political and Military episodes in the latter half of the Eighteenth Century, derived from the life and Correspondence of John Burgoyne_ (London, 1776).[861] On the German side the main sources are Max von Eelking's _Die Deutschen Hülfstruppen im nord-amerikanischen Befreiungskriege, 1776-1783_ (Hannover, 1863,—2 vols.), who gives chapters 7 and 8 to this campaign; the same writer's _Leben und Wirken des Herzoglich-Braunschweig'schen_ _General-lieutenants Friedrich Adolph von Riedesel_ (Leipzig, 1856,—3 vols.) and _Generalin von Riedesel's Berufs-Reise nach Amerika_ (Berlin, 1801), both of which Riedesel memoirs have been translated by W. L. Stone.[862] The succession of battles and movements preceding the final surrender of Burgoyne have been well mapped.[863] * * * * * [Illustration] [Illustration NOTE.—The main British map of the attack of Clinton and Montgomery (Oct. 6, 1777) is one made by John Hills, and published in London by Faden, Jan., 1784, a portion of which, showing the detail, is annexed. The same map is used by Stedman (i. 362), and there is a reduction in the _Catal. of Hist. MSS. rel. to the War of the Rev._ (Albany, 1868, ii. 298), and in the illus. ed. of Irving's _Washington_, iii. 244. Cf. also the maps in Sparks's _Washington_ (v. 92); _Harper's Mag._, lii. 648; and in Lossing's _Field-Book_, ii. 166. Original MS. drafts, showing the attack on the forts, made by Holland, by the Hessian Wangenheim, and by others, are among the Faden maps (nos. 70-73) in the library of Congress. Holland's surveys were followed in the plans of Montgomery and Clinton (1777) by Lieut. John Knight, of the Royal Navy.]
