EDITORS COMMENTS
The Burning of Norfolk, Virginia, 1776: A Devastating Chapter in American History". This powerful print captures the harrowing aftermath of the burning of Norfolk, Virginia on New Year's Day in 1776. The town was reduced to smoldering ruins after enduring an intense eight-hour bombardment by British warships during the American Revolutionary War. This historic event left a lasting mark on the city and its people. In this engraving, we witness a scene filled with chaos and despair. Buildings stand ablaze, engulfed in flames that lick at the sky. Debris litters the streets as frightened men, women, and children scramble to escape from danger. Their faces etched with fear and terror reveal their desperate attempts to flee from falling structures. The image portrays not only physical destruction but also captures the emotional toll inflicted upon those who witnessed their beloved town being ravaged by war. It serves as a stark reminder of the sacrifices made during America's fight for independence. This poignant photograph is part of Cassells History of the United States by Edmund Ollier, published in London around 1880. Its inclusion within this historical volume ensures that future generations will bear witness to this significant moment in American history – a testament to both resilience and perseverance amidst adversity.
