re: History thread: How did we win the Revolutionary War?

Especially when the British had to pretty much fight the French navy all the way across the Atlantic.

To the OP: many historians consider the Am. Rev War as simply another theatre in the longstanding conflict bt France and Britian. It often goes unmentioned that most of the Continental Army's munitions were supplied by the French.
During the Rev War, the majority of Britain's military resources were spent fighting France, not the Colonists...
