On Christmas night 1776, George Washington led the Continental Army across the ice-strewn Delaware River in a daring surprise attack against Hessian forces in Trenton, New Jersey. This campaign, following a series of defeats, rescued the faltering American Revolution, boosted morale, and provided critical victories at Trenton and later Princeton, dramatically shifting the war's momentum. This exhibit looks at ten crucial days during this period.
