During the American War of Independence, the British planned to isolate and then re-occupy the New England colonies in a variety of ways. Most decisively, they invaded upstate New York in the middle of 1777, aiming to drive a wedge between the New England colonies and the rest of the "rebel" territory. Their campaign came to a halt with defeats in several battles around Saratoga, NY, in the autumn of 1777.
