You are to write a letter as if you were a Continental soldier spending the winter at Valley Forge. Write the letter to whomever you choose but you must describe what it is like in the camp and what you think will happen when the army moves out of Valley Forge in the spring. The letter must be at least four sentences long.

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

This will be my letter.

Hi Anthony,

How are you and the family?

Here, I am writing from Valley Forge. The weather is really cold. Cold as the morale of the Continental Army troops. We are stationed here to spend the winter, I guess. Our commander has not told us exactly when we will be ready to be on the road again.

But here is the good news and the reason I am writing to you.

I have heard that a Prussian military official has arrived at camp. He has been invited by General George Washington. Nobody knows exactly why he is here. Only rumors.

But let me tell you that the other night, I was playing cards with other soldiers and someone told us that he heard that this Prussian official is going to train the American troops. They say he has big plans for us to make us an invincible army.

Hope this is true because we really need someone who can train us well. Those British soldiers are professionals and have many advantages.

That's it for now.

I have to go to help in the kitchen.

I'll keep you posted.

Greetings from Valley Forge.

Compare ONE report of the plague's impact on the environment during the period c. 1200- c. 1450 from an outside source to one of the reports in the above passage.

Answers

Answer:

All the primary sources in the image are coherent with the outside and secondary sources that we have about the plague.

Explanation:

We know from these sources (both primary and secondary) that the plague had a devastating effect in Europe and the Middle-East. On average, a third of the population of these areas died, and in some places, up to 70% of the population died.

This amount of death had many impacts in the politics, economics, and society of the region. The shortage of labor led to higher wages, and lower rental income for the landed gentry. It also changed the political dynamics and was a contributing factor for the end of feudalism.
