Summary: "Nuts for Future Historians to Crack" by Horace Wemyss Smith is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. This publication includes collected historical materials such as letters and pamphlets, specifically focusing on figures like General Joseph Reed and General John Cadwalader during the American Revolutionary War. The book seems to delve into contested narratives of historical events, shedding light on issues of credibility and character among key figures. The opening portion introduces the motives behind compiling these historical documents. The author reveals his quest to collect materials for a biography of his great-grandfather, leading him to examine the reputation of General Joseph Reed and the criticisms he faced. Amidst the historical discourse, there’s a strong emphasis on the importance of truth in history, as the author expresses discontent with the perceived slander against Reed's character and seeks to set the record straight. Through various letters from notable figures, a narrative begins to unfold about the controversies surrounding Reed's loyalty and conduct in the army, setting the stage for a detailed investigation into these historical claims.
