The audacity of a handful of New World colonies challenging an eighteenth-century superpower.

The victories of the continental army and patriot militia in Saratoga, New York, in September and October 1777, shattered the perception of the English Crown's military superiority. The capture of a British army persuaded France and Spain to ally with the Americans initiating a world war against the Empire. This is a story of those who fought.
1777: THE YEAR OF DESTINY parallels the heroic resistance of the Ukrainian people and may serve as a reminder to the reader of the price of freedom.
