Question

At which camp did the Continental Army suffer large losses because of a very harsh winter?

1.Morristown
2.Mount Vernon
3.Princeton
4.Valley Forge

Answer 1

Correct answer is 4.Valley Forge .

Step-by-step explanation:

Last option is correct as around 12 000 soldiers were encamped here during the winter of 1777/78. It was one of the hardest moments for the Continental Army during the war, as many died from diseases, cold and hunger, but still the cause was not lost.

First option is not correct as Washington's army was encamped there during the beginning of 1777 after the battle of Princeton - that is why option 3 is also not correct.

Second option is not correct as this is a place where Washington had his great plantation.
