The 1775 Invasion of Canada: The Siege of Fort St. Jean
<p>The water of the Richelieu River ran black and freezing in the autumn of 1775. Here, in the dense, mosquito-infested swamp lands of the Canadian wilderness, the first great offensive of the American Revolutionary War ground to a muddy, agonizing halt. </p><p>The Siege of Fort St. Jean was a brutal, fifty-four-day war of attrition fought against disease, exposure, and dwindling ammunition. </p><p>As the master key to Canada, Fort St. Jean guarded the critical corridor linking the rebellious Thirteen Colonies to the relatively unprotected heart of British North America. </p><p>In this first installment of our series covering America's 1775 invasion of Canada, we explore how an unpolished Continental Army force under Brigadier General Richard Montgomery established a stranglehold on Major Charles Preston’s British garrison. From the deployment of a massive 13-inch mortar dubbed the "Old Sow" to the catastrophic failure of British relief efforts at Longueuil, discover how this grinding standoff broke the British defense in the Richelieu Valley and opened the road to Montreal. </p><p>Support History Distilled on Patreon!</p><p>Get exclusive access to the downloadable maps from today's video and read the full script: patreon.com/HistoryDistilled </p><p>If you learned something new about this forgotten Revolutionary War siege, please hit the like button and let me know your thoughts in the comments below.

How 1,200 Farmers Bled an Empire: The Battle of Bunker Hill
<p>On the night of June 16, 1775, 1,200 colonial militiamen raced against the dawn to build a massive earthen redoubt on a 75-foot hill overlooking Boston. Their goal? To challenge the mightiest military force on the planet.</p><p>Following the skirmishes at Lexington and Concord, British forces found themselves trapped. To break the siege, ambitious British generals launched a massive frontal assault on the colonial positions. What followed was a staggering bloodbath that shattered the myth of British invincibility, prompted King George III's Proclamation of Rebellion, and proved that a motley assemblage of farmers and tradesmen could stand ground against an empire.</p><p>Support the channel and get exclusive content!<br>🗺️ Download the maps and read the full script for this episode on Patreon: [https://patreon.com/HistoryDistilled]</p><p>If you learned something new or enjoyed this look at the Battle of Bunker Hill, please hit the like button and consider subscribing to History Distilled for more deep dives into the American Revolution.

The Battle of Chelsea Creek: How a Raid for Supplies Became a Naval Triumph
<p>In May 1775, a simple raid for livestock accidentally sparked the first British naval defeat of the American Revolution. Six weeks after Lexington and Concord, British General Thomas Gage and his army are trapped inside the Boston peninsula, entirely cut off from mainland supplies. Desperate for food and fodder, Gage relies on the heavily stocked Noddle's and Hog Islands in Boston Harbor.</p><p>To starve the British out, Colonel John Stark and a force of provincial militia march into the freezing mud of the tidal estuary in the dead of night to strip the islands bare. But what begins as a battle for calories quickly escalates when the Royal Navy dispatches the heavily armed schooner HMS Diana to intercept them. Discover how frontier tactics, shallow waters, and a 76-foot mast turned a nighttime farm raid into a humiliating defeat for the British Empire.</p><p>Support History Distilled on Patreon to download the maps from today's video and read the full script: https://patreon.com/HistoryDistilled</p> <strong>Thanks to our monthly supporters</strong> <ul> <li>Dan</li> </ul>
