Who was responsible for the British losing America? George Washington? 'Gentleman Johnny' Burgoyne? Lord Howe? Clinton? Or someone else entirely? We discuss Britain's failures during the American War of Independence, whether Washington counts as British in the context of this debate, why egos matter in war, and whether this was a war that could never have been won by the British. https://linktr.ee/napwarspod British history, Military history, American History, War of Independence, American Revolution, George Washington
