| | The victory at Saratoga brought the Americans out well ahead in the campaign of 1777 despite the loss of Philadelphia. | | | Quite possibly Burgoyne knew before he left England for Canada that Howe was going to Philadelphia, but ambitious "Gentleman Johnny" was determined to make a reputation in the American war, and evidently believed he could succeed alone. | | | With the first foreign material aid in 1777, the influx of foreign officers into the American Army began. |

| | On 4 October 1777, Washington brought his American forces out of the countryside with a full assault against the British army in Germantown. | | | As he did at the Battle of Brooklyn and again at White Plains, Howe used one part of his troops to attack the Americans in the middle of their line and another to conduct a great flanking movement. | | | On 22 October 1777 a Hessian force attacked Fort Mercer from land, but was beaten back. |
