As the Continental Army was gaining traction in 1778, the British opted for multiple fronts, dividing the colonists' resources. In alliance with the Iroquois, they led the Six Nations to attack the frontiers of Northeast Pennsylvania and upstate New York. Hundreds of American militia and colonists were slaughtered.
Gen. George Washington ordered an invasion of those allies in central and western New York. Led by Gen. John Sullivan, the expedition was formed by one-third of the Continental Army. But to get there, they must cross the wilds of the Poconos, where no road had ever been built.
From the journals of Continental Army officers, we learn how a road was engineered and built through the Great Swamp and thick forests that did not see daylight, while troops fought the elements, rattlesnakes and hunger. Sullivan's Road was built over this major mountain range in just one month.
