A short, but captivating account of two Northern New Jersey battles late in the war. Notable aspects include the sturdy professionalism of the Continental Army supported by effective, highly experienced militia units. The British commanders exhibited little stomach for a protracted battle and pursuit of the Rebels thereby lowering the morale of their forces.
