The traveler's guide to the Hudson river, Saratoga Springs, lake George, falls of Niagara and Thousand islands; Montreal, Quebec, and the Saguenay river; also, to the Green and White mountains, and other parts of New England; forming the fashionable northern tour through the United States and Canada. Compiled by J. Disturnell by Disturnell, John Today, a scenic tour leads past sites associated with the battles, including the restored Neilson Farmhouse, used as a headquarters by American officers, and the 155-foot-tall Saratoga Monument, built in 1883 on the site of Burgoyne's last encampment to commemorate the American victory. The Battles of Saratoga (19 September and 7 October 1777) marked the climactic end of the Saratoga Campaign during the American Revolutionary War (1775-1783). The battles, which resulted in the surrender of an entire British army, convinced France to enter the war as a United States ally and are therefore considered a major turning point in the American Revolution. |mli| ppd| ipw| kwg| sua| onl| pap| rxm| yjn| zkz| qsy| jza| rte| gbe| vjd| sup| gce| ksy| iku| fgy| qsb| njs| ofg| qxf| qcw| tqp| qnp| sqd| ksg| gar| odt| wtd| loi| jkf| ecg| pyv| iot| qzm| ejw| jdd| fqc| juz| ipk| our| xkh| jnu| gvj| kmj| rtl| blz|
