How was Washington able to hold together his army at Valley Forge?
He barely did. In fact, his army was ready to revolt against him. Times were hard and tough. Luckily Washington was an effective leader and general. Not the exact historical way of putting it, but it's accurate enough to be correct on a test. Sorry, I haven't read up on Valley Forge in awhile. I can tell you no battle (or at least any of significance) happened here.
What is a summary of Valley Forge?
The winter of 1777-78 was the low point of America 's struggle for independence. General Washington led his weary and demoralized army to Valley Forge a few miles away where they would camp for the winter and prepare for battle with the return of warm weather. An estimated 2,000 died. Under Washington's inspired leadership, conditions improved: more food, equipment and new recruits reached the camp lifting spirits. He read the troops the Crisis, by Thomas Paine, which also helped to inspire them. Most importantly, the training efforts of Baron von Steuben increased discipline and reinvigorated pride among the troops. What had been a ragtag and undisciplined collection of individuals became a cohesive fighting force. On June 19, 1778 the British abandoned Philadelphia and marched back to New York City. Washington led his Continental Army in pursuit. The subsequent battle at Monmouth, New Jersey ended in a draw. The War for Independence would last another five years, but a major victory of the spirit had been won during the winter at Valley Forge.
