RAFT- American Revolution

Now that we have finished discussing the Revolutionary War, I want to hear what you think about it. What would Washington have said to the Continental Congress about the final battle at Yorktown? What would a soldier say about battles in his journal? How could a farmer rouse his companions to stand against the British? What would a citizen of Boston say after the war was over in a poem?
