On the night of December 25, 1776, General George Washington led a daring and risky crossing of the icy Delaware River during the American Revolution.

This episode explores the strategy, conditions, and impact of the crossing, and how Washington’s leadership helped revive the revolutionary cause at a crucial moment. 📢 ⁠⁠Donate via Patreon⁠⁠ for a shout-out! 🎉 Check out our new show, ⁠⁠⁠Bedtime Safari⁠⁠⁠! ⁠⁠⁠📺⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠ 👍 ⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠🇲🇽⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠Spanish | "Déjame contarte la Historia"⁠⁠⁠ Share your thoughts here: ⁠⁠⁠https://forms.gle/AV3cWqMPTujDTMSK7
