Armistice Day Reflections On Washingtons Revolt Endings
The piece recalls the Yorktown surrender and the slow winding down of the American Revolution. It notes British troops remained in New York and Charleston, Washington’s campaigns, and Lord North’s fall, with Shelburne and Franklin moving toward peace. It covers the November 1782 protocol, the eventual 1786 peace articles, and Washington’s final proclamation ending hostilities as troops returned home.
