Feeding Washington’s Army: Surviving the Valley Forge Winter of 1778. Ricardo Herrera. UNC, 2022.

“In this major new history of the Continental Army’s Grand Forage of 1778, award-winning military historian Herrera uncovers what daily life was like for soldiers during the darkest and coldest days of the American Revolution. [It] moves far beyond oft-told, heroic, and mythical tales of Valley Forge and digs deeply into its daily reality, revealing how close the Army came to succumbing to starvation and how strong and resourceful its soldiers and leaders actually were.” (From the dust jacket blurb).
