Moving with a covered wagon

During the revolutionary war and most wars till engines were made. All the equipment had to be moved by hand. There were no nice truck accessories like a trailer hitch on which to help move things.

This was made clear to me when doing a recent move. And how nice it was to move quickly. I was able to drive 60+ mph with a trailer and made a trip that would take several days in a covered wagon with horses. Meanwhile my horses just need some oil and petrol.
