7. Despite Patriot advances, the winter of 1777–1778 was difficult. Washington and his troops faced terrible hardships in the harsh cold at Valley Forge. Many died because of the lack of warm clothing and food. Yet spring finally came, and the army slowly regained strength for the battles ahead.

8. After unsuccessfully engaging the British in a battle to prevent the capture of Philadelphia, Washington led his twelve thousand Continental soldiers into winter quarters at Valley Forge, Pennsylvania. Although no military engagements were fought at Valley Forge, during the winter of 1777-78, the patriot soldiers waged an epic battle against deprivation, disease, and discouragement. Washington’s ill-fed, ill-equipped army, exhausted from long marches, worked in six-inch-deep snow to build log huts and defenses. Undernourished, inadequately clothed, and living in crowded, damp quarters, the men fell sick, with disease killing as many as 2,000. Although Washington petitioned Congress for relief, the fledgling treasury was unable to provide it. Nevertheless, Washington, assisted by Prussian General von Steuben, created an effective, well-trained fighting force. By spring, the army had been transformed in its crucible of suffering. Buoyed by new supplies and troops and the French guarantee of military aid, the Continental army emerged strong, well-disciplined, and confident.
