The Ghost Ship of Brooklyn: An Untold Story of the American RevolutionThe most horrific struggle of the American Revolution occurred just 100 yards off New York, where more men died aboard a rotting prison ship than were lost to combat during the entirety of the war.

The most horrific struggle of the American Revolution occurred just 100 yards off New York, where more men died aboard a rotting prison ship than were lost to combat during the entirety of the war.Moored off the coast of Brooklyn until the end of the war, the derelict ship, the HMS Jersey, was a living hell for thousands of Americans either captured by the British or accused of disloyalty. Crammed below deck -- a shocking one thousand at a time -- without light or fresh air, the prisoners were scarcely fed food and water. Disease ran rampant and human waste fouled the air as prisoners suffered mightily at the hands of brutal British and Hessian guards. Throughout the colonies, the mere mention of the ship sparked fear and loathing of British troops. It also sparked a backlash of outrage as newspapers everywhere described the horrors onboard the ghostly ship. This shocking event, much like the better-known Boston Massacre before it, ended up rallying public support for the war.
Revealing for the first time hundreds of accounts culled from old newspapers, diaries, and military reports, award-winning historian Robert P. Watson follows the lives and ordeals of the ship's few survivors to tell the astonishing story of the cursed ship that killed thousands of Americans and yet helped secure victory in the fight for independence.

You’ll need to have it ironed, in that it comes in a very small plastic.
Minor ironing!

Very nice jacket/coat for the price
Size: X-Large, Color: Black
This was purchased to wear with a tuxedo for northern winter wear. The size XL is what he normally wears. It fit well over a tux shirt, vest and jacket. The length is perfect for a man; it covers the tux but does not get tangled in knees. It is lined in a satiny fabric. The wool type material is a bit rough, not soft, but it does the job. The black is rich looking and provides warmth for really cold weather. This jacket can easily be worn for casual wear. Should only be dry cleaned, but doubt it will ever really need to be cleaned.

Actually violet color and looks nothing like picture
Size: Large, Color: Red
Bait-n-switch. What arrives looks nothing like the photo. Its purple/pink and a misshapen ladies coat. Really low quality. And why they make them 90% polyester is crazy - just waiting to explode in flames!
