Join the Old Barracks Museum on Thursday, April 23 at 7 PM for a lecture by
Eric Schnitzer on his book “Don Troiani’s Campaign to Saratoga – 1777 : The
Turning Point of the Revolutionary War in Paintings, Artifacts, and
Historical Narrative.” Doors open at 6:30 PM.
The Battles of Saratoga are cited as the turning point in the Revolutionary
War. Beginning when the armies prepared to face off in June 1777 through
the surrender of the British Army in October, the battles of the Northern
Campaign were significant to the outcome of the War and the fight for
independence. As a result of the Saratoga battles, the patriots gained
confidence, the French entered the war, and the British plan to win the war
quickly was put to an end.
Master historical painter Don Troiani and historian Eric Schnitzer combine
their talents in this new book on Saratoga, the Revolutionary War campaign.
This magnificently illustrated history features many new artworks,
previously unpublished eyewitness accounts, photographs of important
artifacts, and a solid, detailed historical narrative including background
on the campaigns leading up to Saratoga.
