Summary "Diary of Ezra Green, M.D. from November 1, 1777, to September 27, 1778" by Green is a historical account written during the late 20th century, specifically reprinted in 1971. This book chronicles the experiences of Dr. Ezra Green, a surgeon aboard the Continental ship-of-war "Ranger" under John Paul Jones during the American Revolution. It serves as a firsthand account of naval life and battles during this crucial period of American history. The diary provides an intimate glimpse into the daily life of Dr. Green as he navigates the complexities of war, including the challenges of sailing, encounters with enemy ships, and the hardships faced on long voyages. Starting from Portsmouth, Green details various battles and captures, such as the successful engagements against British vessels, as well as the camaraderie among sailors. He also records unique observations about weather conditions, interactions with the French, and personal reflections on the events unfolding around him. Overall, Green's diary not only highlights his medical duties but also offers a rich narrative of patriotism and human experience during the tumultuous Revolutionary War.
