there are about 12 miles above trenton and they have to march through sleet and snow into trenton. much of the army at this time is barefoot. there are literally, their tracks are filled with blood in the snow. but they push forward. they are leading part of the elements. they pushed down towards the southern portion of trenton. and this is a very very important point. without borders they attack a key bridge. known as the acid the bridge. they capture the bridge along with the guard. and then they set up a series ofcannons on high ground . meanwhile the rest of washington's army is attacking johan roll reedit during most 18th-century engagements, both armies are for both sides battle it out and when one side is not doing well, they retreat. johan had no avenue of retreat thanks to john glover and the indispensable. they captured the bridge, they sealed the retreat and sealed the fate of johan and his entire regiment which changed the course of history . and from there, the army sales back across the delaware thanks to the marblehead men . and it's unfortunately a little bit worse

battle of trenton.he women and the daughters of trenton and now they are returning the favor. crossing pepperidge, just a little bridge in trenton but it's a big bridge in the national imagination, i don't know if national is the right word yet but almost. it's a big bridge because a lot depend on laughing. in any case, washington as you see raises, he crosses the bridge and delivers a few words to the mothers and daughters of trenton and then on their way. needless to say surrounding all of this music and firecrackers balloons and so on. now on his way up to what was called elizabethtown and eventually on to the water where of course now new york city particularly wants a piece of the action for obvious reasons so they've got votes of every kind to escort him along. of course he goes up onto the barge instead of the contemporary lighters, johnson inc. them but there's fireworks and people singing choruses and so on were they ushered him into the harbor now heading toward the battery and eventually into

we hear of the battle of trenton. what do i mean battle with, just like there's two battles of saratoga, there are two battles of trenton. the second one is not as famous. it's known as the bat of asamprink creek. not a color drawing that could be found on the right. it is well documented that hamilton much like he did at brunswick over the river uses his cannon -- overshadowed by the surprise attack at trenton a few days later as well as the second surprise attack, which is the u.s. army at princeton. the problem is, yes, hamilton's artillery is somewhere in the battle of princeton. we don't know exactly where and there is no evidence whatsoever for the lofty legend, but it tells a great story that he fires a cannon with multiple shots at nassau hall and decapitates king george iii's whose portrait hanging on the wall inside. it makes a great story, but there is no evidence for such a tale, but it's a good one. there were offers not from one or two but actually three very well-known generals in the american revolutio

hamilton's artillery was at both battles of trenton. we hear the battle of trenton. so what do we mean the battles. it's like there's two battles at saratoga, there were two at trenton. the second one is not as famous. the i'm showing that in a sketch, unfortunately it's not a colored drawing. it's there on the right. it is well documented that hamilton, much like he did at brunswick, uses his cannon fire to deliver withering fire on the british. and this is a well documented battle that gets over shadowed by the surprise battle at truncheon that happens a few days later. and also the the other attack which happens at the battle of princeton. hamilton yes is somewhere in the battle of princeton but we don't know where. there's no evidence but it tells a great story that he fires a cannon at nasa hall and decapitate's picking george the third who's painting is hanging on the wall. there's no evidence of this though. but it's a good story. now this is true, there were offers not from one or two but from three very well known generals in the american revolution at the t

and kept coming, this may be unanswerable but when people walk in washington and philadelphia or trenton or even new york, with a welcoming the new president or where they were coming washington parts what they have welcomed george washington in the same way in 1786? i'm just curious about this. >> thank you for this question. it's hard to be speculative in that sense -- i hope i am not eating around the question by suggesting that one, sure, he would have been -- he is the man. no question. there is no more famous american -- franklin at this time, wherever he went would have been an occasion but they weren't welcoming but it seems to me, this cut deep for me, they were not, inconspicuously not welcoming the military in that. were his contributions acknowledged? of course but the letters, the speeches, it was fun to look at the various toasts, very much oriented toward the presidency and he plays that pretty smart. there are anxieties, there is the man on horseback the back record on these things as you know is not real good. ... civil authority seems to me embodied in the person as wel
