61. Guerrilla Tactics DID NOT win the American Revolution with Robbie MacNiven

This week welcome Dr. Robbie MacNiven to Rage Towers and he wants to rage about the American War of Independence, or Revolutionary War if you will… and let’s be fair who in the UK doesn’t want to rage about that? We’re talking about how plucky guerrillas didn’t actually slaughter the unprepared stuffy British Regular Army.We’ll be taking about how the bulk of people on both sides were experienced in irregular warfare, how alliances with Native Americans were important, how the atrocities featured in film didn’t happen and how many atrocities were committed by the rebels.You can learn more about this by following Robbie on Twitter at @RobbieMacNivenSupport the showYou can follow History Rage on Twitter @HistoryRage and let us know what you wish people would just stop believing using the Hashtag #HistoryRage.
