Often referred to as the turning point of the American Revolution, the Saratoga Campaign has had much ink spilled about its causes, leaders and consequences. Less has been said about the individuals who participated in this political drama. This book presents the experiences of the real people involved in the Saratoga Campaign. from squabbling English politicians and ambitious generals–both British and American–to intercolonial jealousies. Focusing on the testimonies of people who are largely overlooked, this history sheds light on the most human aspects of the campaign, so often forgotten.
