America's war for freedom - 250 years of independence | DW Documentary
In 1776, America was torn: between loyalty to the British Crown, and its own desire for independence. 250 years later, digitized eyewitness accounts provide insights into daily life during the War of Independence for the first time. Newly transcribed pension claims from the United States’ National Archives bring to life the experiences of people during the American War of Independence, between 1775 and 1783.
