Mahem at Monmouth

In early 1778 a British shake-up took place. For one thing, Sir Henry Clinton was appointed to replace General Howe as supreme commander of the British. Secondly, Clinton received orders to ship 5,000 troops to the West Indies to fight the French. Spain was expected to enter the war to support America, so another 3,000 left to protect St. Augustine in Florida. The remaining British forces were to occupy the New York area. Clinton marched his soldiers and their equipment overland, crossing the Delaware into New Jersey.
