The Combat Studies Institute is pleased to publish this staff ride handbook for the Saratoga Campaign. Covering the opening actions on Lake Champlain, along the Mohawk River, and across the border in Vermont, and concluding with the final, decisive actions along the banks of the Hudson River, this Staff Ride Guide enables a detailed campaign study, highlighting the importance of logistics and terrain, as well as a shorter, more focused study of just the Saratoga battles themselves. The guide highlights the importance of incorporating capabilities from across the total force, from regulars to militia, as well as the vital importance of skilled leadership, command relationships, and the principle of unity of command in order to achieve victory on the battlefield. The Saratoga campaign was the turning point of the American Revolution and served as a model for revolutionaries in later eras for how to defeat hegemonic imperial powers and thus remains a highly relevant case study for future practitioners of modern warfare.
