Mr. Brackenridge, besides being the author of the dialogue and play mentioned, likewise wrote several other dramas, among them being a tragedy, "The Death of General Montgomery at the Siege of Quebec" (1777), and a number of Odes and Elegies. The historical student will find much material relating to Brackenridge's political manoeuvres, in his book on the Western Insurrection; but probably as an author he is more justly famous for his series of stories and sketches published under the title, "Modern Chivalry" (1792), and representing a certain type of prose writing distinctive of American letters of the time of Clay and Crawford. These impressions were later added to. It is a type to be compared with the literary work done in the Southern States by J. J. Hooper, Judge Longstreet, and Judge Baldwin in ante-bellum days. Among Brackenridge's other works may be mentioned: An account of Pittsburgh in 1786. (Pittsburgh _Gazette_, July 29, 1786. Carnegie Library, Pittsburgh: _Monthly Bulletin_, 1902, v., 257-262, 288-290, 332-335.) The Adventures of Captain Farrago. Philadelphia, 1856. The Adventures of Major O'Regan. Philadelphia, 1856. Gazette Publications. Carlisle, 1806. Incidents of the Insurrection in the western parts of Pennsylvania. Philadelphia, 1795. Law Miscellanies. Philadelphia, 1814. Narrative of the late Expedition against the Indians. 1798. An Occasional Paper by Democritus, entitled "The Standard of Liberty." 1802. Political Miscellany. 1793. There are many plays extant dealing specifically with events connected with the Revolution and the War of 1812. For a discussion of same, see an article by A. E. Lancaster, "Historical American Plays," _Chautauquan_, 31:359-364, 1900; also see the present editor's "The American Dramatist," Chapter III. Note the following plays particularly: C. E. GRICE. "The Battle of New Orleans; or, Glory, Love and Loyalty." An Historical and National Drama. 1816. W. IOOR. "The Battle of the Eutaw Springs, and Evacuation of Charleston; or, the Glorious 14th of December, 1782." A National Drama. Played in Charleston, 1817. S. B. H. JUDAH. "A Tale of Lexington." A National Comedy, founded on the opening of the Revolution. 1823. FOOTNOTES: [1] Burk wrote another play, "Female Patriotism; or, The Death of Joan d'Arc," given a New York production in 1798. An interesting letter from Burk to J. Hodgkinson, who produced his "Bunker Hill," is to be found in Dunlap's "The American Theatre" (London, 1833, i, 313). The play has been reissued by the Dunlap Society (1891, no. 15), and edited, with an introduction by Brander Matthews. [2] Philadelphia:/Printed by Joseph Crukshank, for R. Aitken,/Bookseller, Opposite the London-Coffee-/House, in Front-Street./M,DCC,LXXII./ [3] The students of Princeton have not revived the "Battle of Bunkers-Hill," but they point still with some pride to the ivy which was planted by the class of 1771.
