In short, Charles Cornwallis,the British commander was boxed in at Yorktown, a small peninsula. He could not escape by sea, because admiral De Grasse's fleet was blocking the harbor. The combined American and french marines were attacking by land. Eventually, Cornwallis could not absorb any more losses and surrendered.
