  • The Gosselin 1778 Letter to George Washington
    www.amatterofmind.us From the desk of Pierre Beaudry Page 1 of 12 THE GOSSELIN 1778 LETTER TO GEORGE WASHINGTON On Patriot Day in Memory of the Future by Pierre Beaudry, May 19, 2014 FOREWORD During the course of 1777, one year after the beginning of the American Revolutionary War, British General John Burgoyne, head of the British United Imperial Loyalists located in Canada, designed an ill- fated scheme to invade the American colonies from Quebec by moving south via Lake Champlain, capturing Ticonderoga, and attempting to isolate New England from the southern colonies by joining forces with another British army under General William Howe, Commander in chief of the British expeditionary forces in the American colonies, whom he expected to join coming from New York. His lack of understanding strategy, and his overconfident belief that he could win this war with superior forces, led him to be trapped, in fact, by superior American strategy. Burgoyne, who was given a large army from England, committed what may have been the biggest blunder of the American Revolutionary War. He was led to believe that he would get the support of American Indians and of American Loyalists, but failed to realize that after a few nominal victories at Fort Ticonderoga, he was to be hemmed in by the superior strategy of American Major General Horatio Gates and General George Washington. After several attempts to break through the American lines at Saratoga, on October 17, 1777, Burgoyne was forced to surrender his whole army of 6, 200 British troops. That American victory proved to be a crucial turning point in the Revolutionary War.
