Saratoga

By David C. King

Book Overview

In the year 1777, the British launched a three-pronged attack against patriot forces in America. The attack began successfully, when the British reclaimed Fort Ticonderoga (NY) without a struggle. Next, they were victorious at Fort Oriskany (NY). But as British forces under General John Burgoyne marched south, things began to go the patriot's way. Hessians and Loyalists operating in support of the British forces were overwhelmed by militiamen in the battle of Bennington (VT).
