9. " . . . Liberty by these little successes—and by the prudence—calmness—sedateness—& wisdom with which he facilitates all his Opperations. This being the case—and his having not wantonly thrown away the lives of his Soldiers, but reserved them for another Campaign—(if another should Open in the Spring) which is of the utmost consequence—This then cannot be called an Inglorious Campaign. If he had risk'd a General Battle, and should have prov'd unsucessfull—what in the name of heaven would have been our case this Day—Troops are raised with great difficulty in the Southern States—many Regiments from these States do not consist of one hundred men. What then was the grand Southern Army before the N. England Troops joined them and if this Army is Cut off when should we get another as good. General Washington has doubtless considered these matters—& his conduct this Campaign has certainly demonstrated his prudence & Wisdom."

–Albigence Waldo, surgeon at Valley Forge, from his diary during the winter of 1777–1778


Which statement best describes Albigence’s evaluation of Washington’s leadership?

a. He thinks that Washington has been far too timid and has not thought enough about the overall picture of the war to take the strong action needed.

b. He is sure that if Washington had combined his forces with the massive Southern Army, they could smash the British forces that threaten them.

c. He feels that Washington has been wise to hold his men back, and not to throw away the lives of his troops in a major battle he could not afford to lose.

d. He states that Washington has not managed his army well and his disorganized troops can hardly be thought an effective fighting force.
