Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book details the life and career of Lyman Hall, one of the most important but frequently overlooked figures in American history. Born in Connecticut, Hall moved to Georgia and became a prominent physician and community leader. When the Revolutionary War broke out, Hall represented the Parish of St. John in the Continental Congress, despite opposition from the majority of the colony's inhabitants. His efforts in advocating for the rights of the parish and the colony as a whole solidified his reputation as a staunch patriot. Hall risked his safety and fortune by supporting the revolutionary cause. As a frontier settlement, the parish of St. John was vulnerable to attacks from Native Americans and the British, and Hall's decision to support the revolution put his property and life in jeopardy. Despite these risks, he remained steadfast in his belief that the colonies had a just cause. Hall's political activism extended beyond his role in Congress: he played a pivotal role in securing Georgia's accession to the general confederacy. Through his persuasive speeches and unwavering dedication, Hall convinced the people of St. John to reject the conservative policies of the Savannah convention and align themselves with the other colonies in their fight for independence. Ultimately, Hall's efforts not only influenced the course of the revolution in Georgia but also contributed to the broader success of the American cause for independence.
