520			_a"Yorktown and the Siege of 1781" by Charles E. Hatch, Jr. is a historical account written in the mid-20th century. This publication forms part of the National Park Service's Historical Handbook Series, aiming to provide detailed insight into the pivotal siege that marked the culmination of the American Revolutionary War, particularly highlighting the strategic complexities and significant events surrounding the British surrender at Yorktown. The opening of the book sets the historical context by describing the Siege of Yorktown as a decisive battle that essentially ended British military operations in the American Revolution. The text introduces key figures such as General George Washington, the Count de Rochambeau from the French army, and Lieutenant General Cornwallis leading the British forces. It outlines the series of military maneuvers leading up to the siege, detailing both sides' strategies, troop movements, and the evolving dynamics of the conflict. This comprehensive introduction hints at the complexities of wartime leadership and the critical alliances formed during that dramatic period in American history.
