Descriptionof Monmouth Courthouse 1778. The last great Battle in the North
Manufacturer

The battle of Monmouth Courthouse was not only the last major action in the Northern theater, it was also the longest and hardest-fought engagement of the entire Revolutionary War (1775-1783). When the British abandoned Philadelphia to return to New York City, American troops harassed their retreat. On the morning of 28 June 1778, General Lee, George Washingtons lieutenant, attacked the British rearguard but his attack went badly wrong. The British rearguard, now reinforced, threw Lees troops into a headlong retreat. Lee was relieved of his command and Washingtons Continentals then stood toe-to-toe with the British, bloodily repulsing a series of powerful attacks by crack troops.
