Sir John Burgoyne. Crown Point. Ticonderoga. Mt. Defiance. Saratoga. Bemis Heights. Howe stayed in Philly. Arnold charged drunk into withering fire after being releived by Gates to lead the charge. Three days later the surrender of the British northern army. That?

Louis-Jacques-Mandé Daguerre (November 18, 1787 – July 10, 1851)


November 1951, I was born and I'm enjoying the benefits of Louis Daguerre and all of the others who dreamed of a better way to catch life.
