One Comment to “Charles Lee’s Disgrace at the Battle of Monmouth”
I”m reeling from the disappointment of the plans. A commander has to
be whole hearted and convey to his staff the ernest sense of the mission. Lee failed to do this. He doomed himself by being a critic of Washington, and goes down in history being blamed for the very things he was focusing on George. The results of this battle are about
equal but as you summarize it whittled down the British manpower and morale. Whiners are not honored, only brave doers. A most
excellent historical account, thank you.
