The Battle of Bunker Hill was a series of three attacks by the British on June 17, 1775 during the Siege of Boston. This was one of the early battles of the American Revolution.
The colonists learned that the British were planning on occupying the hills around Boston, Massachusetts as a way to control the city. The American troops went to the hills and built forts out of earth, called redoubts, to defend the hills.
The British charged the American troops in three attacks. The British had over 3,000 troops and the Americans had 2,500. The Americans won the first two attacks and heavily damaged the British forces. On the third attack, the colonists ran out of ammunition and had to retreat over the hills into Cambridge, Massachusetts.
While the British won the battle, they suffered over 1,000 injuries and deaths, including a large number of officers. The American forces had only 450 deaths or injuries. The Battle of Bunker Hill encouraged the Americans because it proved that the inexperienced colonial forces could fight the well trained and highly experienced British Army.

The Siege of Yorktown was the last major battle of the American Revolution. It signaled the end of the war, as the British general, Lord Cornwallis, surrendered to General George Washington, commander of the American forces. The British signed the Treaty of Paris on September 3, 1783, which finally ended the war.
The battle was fought in Yorktown, Virginia from September 28 to October 19, 1781. The battle was fought both on land and on the sea. The French army and navy joined the American army to fight against the British. The French army was lead by General Rochambeau and the French navy was headed by Admiral de Grasse.
