The Battle of Yorktown, fought from September 28 to October 19, 1781, was won by the American Continental Army, led by General George Washington, along with French forces under General Rochambeau. This decisive victory effectively ended major military operations in the American Revolutionary War, leading to the eventual negotiation of peace and recognition of American independence. The British commander, General Cornwallis, surrendered, marking a turning point in the conflict.
