Chapters X and XI.

For the exploits of John Paul Jones and of the American navy, Mrs. De Koven’s "The Life and Letters of John Paul Jones", 2 vols. (1913), Don C. Seitz’s "Paul Jones", and G. W. Allen’s "A Naval History of the American Revolution", 2 vols. (1913), should be consulted. Jusserand’s "With Americans of Past and Present Days" (1917) contains a chapter on ’Rochambeau and the French in America’; Johnston’s "The Yorktown Campaign" (1881) is a full account; Wraxall, "Historical Memoirs of my own Time" (1815, reprinted 1904), tells of the reception of the news of Yorktown in England.

The "Encyclopaedia Britannica" has useful references to authorities for persons prominent in the Revolution and "The Dictionary of National Biography" for leaders on the British side.
