Description: In 1777 the British, who controlled New York City, decided to drive the patriots from the rest of the colony through a three-pronged attack on Albany. All three British generals failed to achieve their objectives: St. Leger, coming from the west, failed to advance beyond Ft. Stanwix; Burgoyne, from the north, bogged down and found himself surrounded before reaching Albany; and Clinton, from New York City, made it to Kingston but failed to relieve Burgoyne, whose army surrendered at Saratoga.
