Yorktown | Revolutionary War Historian Gives Guided Tour

Описание к видео Yorktown | Revolutionary War Historian Gives Guided Tour

Hop in the car with Revolutionary War Historian Kristopher White for this all-encompassing tour of the Yorktown Battlefield, where American Independence was won in 1781. We also explore the town and visit some of the earthworks associated with the Civil War battle 81 years later. Visit all of the pivotal locations including Cornwallis's Cave, Redoubts 9 & 10, the Moore House and Surrender Field. #yorktowntour

There is no replacement for being able to see America's Hallowed Grounds in person, but we hope this serves as a worthy option for the virtual experience. We encourage you to visit Colonial National Historical Park in-person. Check out our Historic Triangle Itinerary to aid with doing so: https://www.battlefields.org/visit/it...

The American Battlefield Trust preserves America’s hallowed battlegrounds and educates the public about what happened there and why it matters. We permanently protect these battlefields for future generations as a lasting and tangible memorial to the brave soldiers who fought in the American Revolution, the War of 1812, and the Civil War.
