Loyalist Books & Book Reviews
Loyalist heritage exists in some of the land we live on, in some of the houses we live in or have made into museums or other heritage properties, in museums, in historical records, family histories and genealogies. Books, however, are one of the leading ways that others learn about the Loyalist heritage.
Each year numerous books are written and published on a variety of topics related to the American Revolutionary War period, including the Loyalists. In this section of our UELAC website, a few reviews of some of those books, and occasionally the book itself.
