Overview

This is the story of the Saratoga campaign from the perspective of the northern British army's commanding officer, Major General John Burgoyne. Burgoyne was confident in his ability to strike a decisive blow against the rebellion in the colonies. Instead, the stubborn rebels fought back, slowed his advance and inflicted irreparable losses, leading to his defeat and surrender at Saratoga on October 17, 1777. The book includes maps and period engravings of the Lake Champlain-Hudson River Valley corridor and historic sites, and Burgoyne's dispatches to Lord George Germain, British Colonial Secretary, his addresses to his army, and exchanges with friends and fellow officers.
