🔥The Weekend the British Burned Danbury🔥
Thursday, June 25 at 6:30 PM
It was 1777, two years into the Revolutionary War, when a weekend military mission into inland Connecticut was supposed to be an easy victory for the British. The mission was to help put down the Patriot uprising. The mission’s objective was to march from Long Island Sound to Danbury and incapacitate it as a key supply center for the Patriot military. It was the first time the British had marched inland to do battle during the war. The strategy did not work out as they had planned. Included in the presentation are reviews of the battles that took place that weekend in Danbury, Ridgefield and Saugatuck.
Join noted journalist, podcaster and storyteller Mike Allen as he tells the amazing story of the burning of Danbury by the British Armed Forces.
