Kuvaus

In August 1781, George Washington orchestrated one of history's greatest military deceptions to win the American Revolution. Host Jack Maddox explores how secret letters, fake encampments, and planted intelligence convinced the British he'd attack New York while allied forces slipped 400 miles south to trap Cornwallis at Yorktown—a strategic masterstroke built on trust, timing, and audacious lies.

Siege of Yorktown - Closing the Trap: The Battle No One Talks About

Jack Maddox examines the Battle of the Capes, the overlooked 1781 naval engagement that won the American Revolution.
