@historiantosara.bsky.socialSeptember 8, 1777: Gates's army struck camp near the Sprouts and marched north. No battle yet. Just soldiers, baggage, roads and uncertainty. Four days later, they occupied Bemus Heights. The campaign was already taking shape.
@historiantosara.bsky.socialBefore Gates could defend Saratoga, his army had to find ground worth defending. On September 8, 1777, it marched north toward Stillwater. Four days later came Bemus Heights.
