American Revolution Assignment

Instruction 

Using video(Rebellion to Revolution. The Revolutionaries lay siege to Boston; the formation of
the Continental Army and the conscription of slaves by both sides.), and the textbook(In Harm’s
Way: Chapter 3 – “Tis Time to Part, 1763-1776
Chapter 4 – Maintaining Independence, 1777-1782
Joshua London, Victory in Tripoli: How America’s War With the Barbary Pirates Established the
U.S. Navy and Shaped a Nation), write a 500-word essay that places the content of the video
into the overall context of the American Revolution. You can examine the events that precipitated
the conflict, how the conflict was waged, how it transitioned from a local conflict into a world war,
the internal fight within the colonies as a civil war, or how it concluded?
Be sure to use both the video AND the textbook in your answer and include citations for both
throughout your work.
