This video examines the war’s brutal hardships, shifting loyalties, and widening front in 1780. The year also ushered in deepening alliances, strengthened ideals, and a renewed fight for American independence. Battles in North and South Carolina and on the western frontier are highlighted, along with the July arrival of the comte de Rochambeau and the French forces at Newport, Rhode Island. Featured video topics were suggested by our national network of Master Teachers Seminar alumni.
The Year in Revolution Series was produced with classroom use in mind. Beginning with 1775 and ending with 1783, students and lifelong learners alike will learn about each year of the Revolution through a comprehensive overview video and five “who, what, where, when, and how” videos. The animated series draws heavily from the American Revolution Institute of the Society of the Cincinnati’s library and museum collections.
Funding for this video was made possible by a grant from the George S. Rich Family Foundation. The creative team for this series was assembled by the American Revolution Institute and the talented educational production leads at Makematic Limited/ClickView.
