Imagine that you were a soldier at the Battle of Saratoga in 1777 and writing an article of your experience for your hometown newspaper. It would be important for you to think about the strategy of the battle, the significant people involved, and the impact on how it changed the course of the war and the colonies. It would also be of great interest to have you write about your feelings of such an experience. With an encyclopedia and the internet, research the Battle of Saratoga. Using the information you gathered, type a 250 word article on the Battle of Saratoga. The article should use proper grammar, punctuation, and spelling. List your sources at the end of your article

If nothing else, I need sources so I can write it... I'm really bad with first-person essays and doing research
