The second engagement occurred October 7, 1777. Burgonye attacked the American position but was driven back. The Americans, led by General Benedict Arnold, surrounded Burgoyne near Saratoga, and on October 17, he surrendered. The battles of Saratoga were the first major American victories and marked the turning point of the war. |
