Siege of Yorktown: The Revolutionary War In Four Minutes

The Battle of Yorktown proved to be the decisive engagement of the American Revolution as British surrender forecasted the end of Crown rule in the colonies and the birth of a new nation—the United States of America. Outnumbered and outfought during a three-week siege in which they sustained great losses, British troops surrendered to the Continental Army and their French allies. This last major land battle of the Revolutionary War led to negotiations for peace with the British and the signing of the Treaty of Paris in 1783.
