Join us on Jul 9 at 5:30 p.m. to learn about the myths and realities of the American Revolution and the role of France in it.

This will be the first in a series of webinar presentations to discuss France’s role in the American Revolution.

Myth No. 1: The Battle of Saratoga was the “Turning Point” of the American Revolution because it brought France into the war to help the Americans with Benjamin Franklin’s persuasion.

• Saratoga was NOT “THE Turning Point” of the American Revolution.
• Winning the battle of Saratoga was NOT the “trigger” for Americans to obtain French Aid.
• Ben Franklin was NOT the first American to develop a relationship with France.
• The American DID NOT begin to win major battles after the “Turning Point” of Saratoga.

Randy Flood, a historian specializing in American Revolution history through educational programs and public speaking engagements, will be our presenter. Randy is co-founder of the “The Real American Revolution” and the “American Revolution Consortium for Civic Education”.
