- Опубликовано: 26 янв 2023
- Throughout the punishing winter at Valley Forge, Gen. George Washington preserved the Continental Army while also forging it into an effective fighting force. This achievement not only reflected military leadership but also deft political action that allowed the commander-in-chief both to repel an attempt to supersede him and to command the congressional and national support he needed to remake the army. Historian David O. Stewart examines Washington’s masterful navigation of politics and leadership during the daunting 1777-1778 winter encampment.

As a someone who lives in valley forge. I can confirm the roads are still just as bad as they were for Washington.
Call your State Rep.and knaw on his butt.
Making comments on RUclips won't fix the roads.
The more I learn about the Very Honorable Mr. Washington, the more I am thankful for him.
This channel is very much needed and appreciated.
Great for home schooling! ✝️🇺🇸 📚
Wonderful discussion thank you for sharing. We owe so much to these brave people who risked everything for our freedoms today.
This was fantastic. An absolutely wonderful speaker. Thank you for sharing this.
My ancestor -dr Joseph loomer- was at valley forge.
My current thinking is that Benjamin Eaton was one of Washington’s life guards and I believe he was there as well. He is a direct ancestor as well.
Wonderful presentation 🇺🇸🙏
nice talk about GW at Valley Forge ... but i think the Continental Congress met in York, PA during the winter of '77-'78.
Phil Silvers episode : The Revolutionary War . Brilliant !
Washington praying in the snow came from Parson Weems. Our source for the cherry tree story. It has inspired some mawkush art. Washungton kept his spiritual life private
This is the way.
