Historical Note: Beth Dhunjisha from Valley Forge National Historical Park

Dear Diary, 

Now that we're done reading The Winter of Red Snow: The Revolutionary War Diary of Abigail Jane Stewart, we got to talk to a park ranger from Valley Forge National Historical Park! 

Ranger Beth Dhunjisha shared with us some great information about the history of the Continental Army's winter encampment of 1777-1778. We talked about myths versus reality and about teaching history to kids at a national park! 

We hope you enjoy it!

Yours Truly, 

Cate and Jen
