Valley Forge National Historical Park is the location of the 1777-78 winter encampment of the Continental Army under General George Washington. Recruited by Benjamin Franklin in Paris, Baron Friedrich Wilhelm von Steuben, former member of the Prussian General Staff, prepared the Continental Army to fight more effectively against the British Army. Although the Winter of 1777-1778 was harsh and meager, it was a turning point in the American Revolutionary War. At the Battle of Barren Hill (May 20, 1778) and the Battle of Monmouth (June 28, 1778), the Continental Army stood up to the British Army on equal footing began to wear away at the morale of the British citizenship.

studying history is intellectually enriching and challenging. The most thought-provoking history asks the “why” questions. Why did the McGuffey Eclectic Readers become so popular in the 19th century? Why were women in colonial America taught to read, but less often to write? Answering questions like these moves us to think about literacy as no other form of inquiry can.
Some people these days seem so desperate to leave their footprint on the world that they will go to any number of lengths to leave a piece of themselves imbedded in the annuals of history. If we delve into a piece of historical research we will find out that back in 1968 Andy Warhol made a statement saying: “In the future, everyone will be world-famous for 15 minutes.”
