The battle of the White Plains occurred in New York and New Jersey on October 28, 1776. The cause of it was the revolutionary war with British General Howe and his troops attempting to take land from the American Colonies General Washington and his troops. The effect was that General Washington did not have the hill secure enough and General Howe was able to take over it and force General Washington to retreat.
