Well, exactly! I'm just smitten with this story. Perhaps it's the idealism of this impressionable aristocrat playing soldier in someone else's war of independence. I know I had people along his journey, so I used the timeline project (Projectkin.org/timeline) to hold the story together as I dove in to find my people.
My American Friends of Lafayette have been incredibly helpful in centering me on the facts and dates. 🥰 What fun to meet them in all their cosplay finery. That's not something we get to see much out here in California. Even in Lafayette, California.
He was in the biography I just finished a lot. Very neat!!
Yeah, I guess he and Washington were pretty tight.
Yes and he really did try to get him to consider abolishing slavery.
