Grant Description

This project will prepare a Historic Resource Study to conduct new research informed by recent historiography of north eastern borderlands, settlement, and contestation. The research should examine Saratoga and its place in the borderlands in order to explore and consider new stories and voices that can inform NPSкs understanding of the people and places associated with Saratoga NHP and its long and significant history prior to the battles of 1777. The research will build on an historiographical essay written for the park in 2011, and tap into archival collections in repositories in the U.S. and Canada in order to go beyond a standard literature search. The research will culminate in a manuscript of publishable quality.
