Anthony Wayne was perhaps Washington’s most aggressive commander, and he was one of the few key officers to play a major role in all three segments of the battle: morning, noon and afternoon. General Lafayette, who was in many ways Washington’s surrogate son, played a key role in the campaign before the battle and on the morning of the fight. This lecture will summarize the careers of these two key officers, with emphasis on their roles at Monmouth.This program will be presented by award winning author and Friends of Monmouth Battlefield President, Dr. David Martin. Dr. Martin is the author of over 20 books on the Revolutionary War and Civil War, including two award-winning books on Gettysburg. He is also the author of “A Molly Pitcher Sourcebook” (2003).
Join us at 2:00 PM in the Visitor Center auditorium at Monmouth Battlefield State Park, 20 State Route 33, Manalapan, NJ. The lecture is open to the public and admission is free. For further information: [email protected]
