In all the spectacle of war there has seldom been a sight of British General Burgoyne's campaign of 1777. The float and march south from Canada had almost a surreal quality juxtaposed against the Adirondak Champlain transported nearly 9,000 combatants together with 138 cannons. Burgoyne's objective was Fort Ticonderoga and from there Albany and a redezvous with British forces coming from New York City. the strategic purpose of the campaign was nothing short of an end to the American Rebellion. The intrigue on the American side lay in the cult of personality. Saratoga was to be Benedict Arnold's greatest victory in a string of successes which rank him among the finest field commanders of the era! It is Sep. 19, 1777. The fate of the American Revolution hangs in the balance. Do you, as the British, attempt to storm the prepared American positions on the high ground at Bemis Heights, or do you attempt to turn the Americans left? As the Americans, do you wait at Bemis Heights for the approch of the enemy, or do you sortie and meet the British in the forests where their artillery will be of little value? Next Day Scenario! The Battle of Freeman's Farm was a marginal British victory, but the strategic situation remained unchanged. Gates, in superior numbers and on prepared ground, was still astride the only road to Albany. Burgoyne saw no real flexibility in his orders. He had to move the very next day! As it happened Burgoyne was convinced by his staff to delay the offensive for 24 hours during which time Clinton's coded message arrived in New York. An imperfect reading of that message suggested Clinton was on his way with a relief column when in fact all he planned was a diversion against the Hudson Highlands. Burgoyne decided to suspend forward movement, dig in, and wait for Clinton!!!!! History Awaits You!!!!! Condition: Punched & slighly clipped counters. Previous owner was meticulous.
