A solar eclipse plunges the colonies into darkness in June 1778 as the Continental Army mobilizes from Valley Forge to attack British supply chains. The two armies clash near Monmouth Court House in New Jersey in brutal summer heat. At the end of the battle, both sides are bloodied, yet both claim victory. The Battle of Monmouth will be the last major engagement of the war in the North.
