Different Perspectives of the Winter at Valley Forge Source #1: From the journal of Private James Martin, describing conditions in the Continental Army as the soldiers marched to Valley Forge. The Army was now not only starved but naked; the greatest part were not only shirtless and barefoot but destitute of all other clothing, especially blankets. I procured a small piece of raw cowhide and made myself a pair of moccasins, which kept my feet (while they lasted) from the frozen ground, although, as I well remember, the hard edges so galled my ankles, while on a march, that it was with much difficulty and pain that I could wear them afterwards; but the only alternative I had, was to endure this inconvenience or to go barefoot, as hundreds of my companions had to, till they might be tracked by their blood upon the rough frozen ground. But hunger, nakedness and sore shins were not the only difficulties we had at that time to encounter; we had hard duty to perform and little or no strength to perform it with. Source #2: From the journal of Dr. James Thatcher, who learned about camp conditions from his friends. In the month of December, the troops were employed in erecting log huts for winter quarters, when about one-half of the men were destitute of small-clothes, shoes and stockings. Some thousands were without blankets, and were obliged to warm themselves over fires all night, after the fatigues of the day, instead of reposing in comfortable lodgings. At one time nearly three thousand men were unfit for duty from the want of clothing; and it was not uncommon to track the march of the men over ice and frozen ground by the blood from their naked feet. Several times…they experienced little less than a famine in camp; and more than once our general officers were alarmed by the fear of a total dissolution of the army from the want of provisions…It cannot be deemed strange that sickness and mortality were the consequence of such privations in the midst of an inclement season. Under these unexampled sufferings, the soldiers exercised a degree of patience and fortitude which reflects on them, the highest honor, and which ought ever to entitle them to the gratitude of their country. The army…was not without consolation, for his excellency the commander – in- chief…manifested a fatherly concern and fellow-feeling for their sufferings and made every exertion in his power to remedy the evil and to administer the much desired relief. Being authorized by Congress, he reluctantly resorted to the unpopular expedient of taking provisions from the inhabitants by force, and thus procured a small supply for immediate necessity. Source #3: From the diary of Surgeon Albigence Waldo written shortly after his arrival at Valley Forge. December 21—Preparations made for huts. Provisions scarce. Mr. Ellis went homeward—sent a letter to my wife. Heartily wish myself at home. My skin and eyes are almost spoiled with continual smoke. A general cry thro’ the camp this evening among the soldiers, “No meat! No meat!” The distant vales echoed back the melancholy sound—“No meat! No meat!” “What have you for your dinners, boys?” “Nothing but fire cake and water, Sir.” At night, “Gentlemen, the supper is ready.” “What is your supper, lads?” “Fire cake and water, Sir.” Very poor beef has been drawn in our camp, the greater part of this season. A butcher bringing a quarter of this kind of beef into camp one day who had white buttons on the knees of his breeches, a soldier cries out, “There, there, Tom, is some more of your fat beef. But my soul, I can see the butcher’s breeches buttons through it.” December 22—Lay excessive cold and uncomfortable last night. My eyes are started out from their orbits like a rabbit’s eyes, occasioned by a great cold and smoke. “What have you got for breakfast, lads?” “Fire cake and water, Sir.” The Lord send that our Commissary of Purchases may live on fire cake and water till their glutted guts are turned to pasteboard. Our division are under marching orders this morning. I am ashamed to say it, but I am tempted to steal fowls if I could find them or even a whole hog, for I feel as if I could eat one. But the impoverished country about us affords but little matter to employ a thief, or keep a clever fellow in good humor. But why do I talk of hunger and hard usage, when so many in the world have not even fire cake and water to eat? Source #4: From the journal of Chevalier de Pontgibaud, a French volunteer who joined the Continental Army at Valley Forge. Soon I came in sight of the camp. My imagination had pictured an army with uniforms, the glitter of arms, standards, etc., in short, military pomp of all sorts. Instead of the imposing spectacle I expected, I saw, grouped together or standing alone, militiamen, poorly clad, and for the most part without shoes – many of them badly armed.

Creating a Soundtrack Objective: Students will identify music that best represents the key battles and events in the Revolutionary War 1. You will be creating a sound track that could be used as background music for a documentary film on battles of the Revolutionary War 2. Use a variety of music and chose the music that best supports each are of conflict with the United States. For example for the revolutionary war, I might start with R.E.S.P.E.C.T. by Aretha Franklin to explain the Battle of Lexington and Concorde, followed by “ The Climb” by Miley Cyrus to illustrate the Battle of Bunker Hill… If studying Yorktown I would need a song that shows defiance and victory, for example “We will, we will rock you” by Queen. 3. You will be assigned to complete the playlist for only one group. You will then combine with another groups for a complete playlist of the Revolutionary War. 4. Write your play list and explanations of your choices in the blanks. Group 1 Group 2 Lexington and Concord Trenton and Princeton Bunker Hill Oriskany Battle of Long Island Brandywine, Paoli, and Germantown Group 3 Group 4 Saratoga The battle of the “Serapis” Valley Forge Savannah Charles town, Camden Kaskaskia and Vincennes King’s Mountain, Cowpens, Guilford Courthouse Yorktown



What songs would you choose and why?

Choose songs that would best represent or give feeling of the events and or battles. In the space provided below explain why you chose each song (see example). Example: “If You’re Reading This” by Tim McGraw. It’s a letter from a soldier to his wife written as if he has passed away, explaining his choice to fight and why he’s not ‘coming home.’ I would use it to illustrate the winter of 1777-1778 while troops were at Valley Forge.
