Why did the colonial troops find that the European style of fighting was not the most effective against the British?

Not only was the British Army one of the world's most well-trained armies at the time, but they often had the advantage of numerical superiority. Washington's defeat at the Battle of Trenton showed this weakness. In later conflicts, the colonials adopted many tactics of skirmishing and guerrilla warfare that had been effective in the French and Indian War.

Fighting broke out at Concord, Massachusetts, between the British army and Colonial militias because the British had come to Concord to remove munitions reportedly stored in the town.

The subsequent firing was the inevitable result of colonial refusal to withdraw and allow the seizure of their arms and ammunition.
