How Much Did Spain Help During the American Revolution?

Everyone knows about the French involvement during the American Revolution, but few know about the Spanish involvement. Spain proved to be a major help during America's fight for independence, and few individuals did more than the great Spaniard Bernardo de Galvez. It is time to give Spain and de Galvez the credit they deserve for helping the colonists defeat the British Empire. We talk with Michael Cristian on the topic of de Galvez to give you an introduction into the great man himself. We also provide some book recommendations for further research on de Galvez and the Spanish involvement. With Spain officially declaring war on Great Britain in 1779, it truly became an imperial war.
