DESCRIPTION:This is a virtual event only.  It WILL NOT take place at Washin
 gton Crossing Historic Park.  Registration is required. Log-in information 
 provided at registration.\n\n \n\n In recognition of the Marquis de Lafayet
 te’s 1824 tour of America James Taub\, Associate Curator at the Museum of t
 he American Revolution\, will examine how French service in the colonies  i
 nfluenced the future of the empire. \n\n \n\nWe often talk of the French Mi
 litary during the American Revolutionary War through the lens of Rochambeau
  and his troops. However\, the service of his ‘Expédition particulière’ was
  a drop in the bucket of the experience of French arms during the years fol
 lowing the Seven Years War. By following personalities such as Rochambeau\,
  Broglie\, Montcalm\, Bougainville\, and Lafayette\, we can discover how th
 e French military had their own revolution from the 1760s to 1780s\, and ho
 w the groundwork of the successes of the French Revolution and First Empire
  were laid by men who witnessed war in America.
