North America can get pretty cold- a lot colder than Europe! In places like upstate New York, Michigan, Ontario, and Quebec, winters can be deadly even today.

In this video, I'll discuss some of the clothing and equipment used by the British Army during the American War of Independence, including blanket coats (capotes) and snowshoes!
