Monmouth Battlefield State Park

Site of the longest, continuous battle in the American Revolutionary War. The Battle of Monmouth marked the Continental Army's successful return after the brutal winter and occupation of Valley Forge. It also led to the prosecution of General Charles Lee for failing to push a satisfactory advance against the British rearguard. 

The Battle of Monmouth featured a diverse group of Patriots; soldiers such as Winsor Fry and Michel Capitaine du Chesnoy came from completely different backgrounds, yet both faced similar hardships and aspired to freedom and revolution. You can learn more about both Patriots at the American Revolution Experience.
