The American Revolution: The Second Battle of Trenton January 2, 1777

Hi everyone, and welcome to the first episode of OURStory: A Podcast on American History! We are Jonathan and Jay, two amateur historians that want to bring to you the stories of the people and events that made America! For our first episode we dive right into a pivotal, yet often overlooked, battle of the American Revolution. A mere week after Washington's crossing of the Delaware and surprise victory at Trenton, Washington came back and fought the British a second time at the Second Battle of Trenton, also known as The Battle of Assunpink Creek. This small battle had lasting ramifications for both the British and Continental Armies. Listen in to find out how this almost forgotten battle played a major role in America's War for Independence.
