EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking print captures a British 8 inch howitzer shell found near Fort Mifflin in 1777, during the American Revolutionary War. The shell, a powerful weapon of its time, serves as a reminder of the intense military conflicts that took place during this pivotal period in history. Fort Mifflin, located on an island in the Delaware River, played a crucial role in defending Philadelphia from British forces. The discovery of this artillery projectile near the fort offers a tangible connection to the fierce battles and strategic maneuvers that defined the war for independence.

It reminds us of the sacrifices made by those who fought for liberty and justice, laying down their lives for future generations to enjoy peace and prosperity. Let us honor their memory by preserving these artifacts and learning from our past as we continue to strive towards creating a more peaceful world for all.
