Pictured is a distant view of the recreated palisade Fort Necessity located near Farmington, Pennsylvania. The Great Meadows, proclaimed by George Washington to be a charming field for an encounter, was a natural openness in a dark forest thick with enormous hemlocks and white pines that made up Pennsylvania’s virgin forest. This battlefield resulted in the first and last surrender by Washington. |
