This display, modeled on one at Gettysburg, makes the three battles of Saratoga understandable to the non-historian. *

The rest of the tiny visitor centre is not terribly inspiring. *

Monument to Kosciuszko, one of Washington's formost military engineers. *

The battlefield is - and - was - a mixture of woods and cleared land, with many hills and valleys, some quite b abrupt. *

Sturdy outdoor signage is located at critical points. Text and illustrations are good and the audio is done using period-correct vocabulary and accents. *
