About this book
The Fall of British Tyranny, subtitled Or, American Liberty Triumphant, is by John Leacock. The parts listed include the Dedication, the Preface, the Goddess of Liberty, the Prologue, Acts I to V and the Epilogue. The text says John Leacock is the author of The Fall of British Tyranny, published in 1776, in Philadelphia.
An advertisement describes the play as containing a pleasing scene between Roger and Dick, two shepherds near Lexington. The advertisement lists a patriotic scene in the camp at Cambridge, between the Generals Washington, Lee, and Putnam. A character named Lord Boston tells Percy to take command of the brigade of reinforcement immediately and fly to the assistance of poor Smith. General Washington asks whether General Montgomery is killed, and a messenger answers that he certainly is.
