The Battle of Brandywine was fought on September 11, 1777 and is considered to be the largest land battle of the American Revolution. It was also the main engagement of the Philadelphia campaign. The loss at Brandywine allowed the British to occupy Philadelphia and caused the Continental Congress to vacate the city. Why has it received so little attention from historians?
Join historical reenactor, lecturer and tour guide, Michael Jesberger for this brand new lecture on Philadelphia Revolutionary War history.
