DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Castle Williams: Historic Structure Report, Governors Island National Monument National Parks of New York Harbor, New York, New York Castle Williams and Fort Jay are both located on Governors Island. Fort Jay was constructed of mostly earthen materials in 1794, and was reconstructed in masonry 1806 09. At that time it was renamed Fort Columbus. Fort Columbus was also the name of the military post located on Governors Island, of which Castle Williams was a part. The name of both the post and the fortification officially reverted back to Fort Jay in 1904, which is still used today. Castle Williams was frequently found to be misspelled as Castle William in both published and unpublished, primary and secondary sources, throughout the years. This historical misspelling is preserved in the excerpts included in this report. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKBrigadier General Gustavus Loomis (1789-1872) served for almost six decades in the uniform of the United States Army. A veteran of five wars, Loomis was a professional soldier respected by his peers and feared by his enemies. But Gustavus Loomis, a country boy from Thetford, Vermont was more than a career military officer. Loomis was a sincere and dedicated Christian. His faith in Jesus Christ was visible and undeniable. In his long life, Loomis always placed God first, followed by devotion to his family and then to service to his country. He was a man of the military who saw frequent combat and who spoke about Jesus to all who would listen. His home in garrison and his tent in the field were places of psalm singing and scripture reading. His bravery in the face of the enemy gave him high commendations, but his real passion was for the Lord and for his family. While some ridiculed him for his support of revivals, none ever questioned his professionalism as a soldier and an officer.
