Alternative History where the Entente Cordiale was signed in 1770 and France deployed the Expédition Particulière in 1776 to help Britain defeat its rebelling North American colonies.

A place I’d like to visit someday. The Ross-Shire Buffs were my “local” regiment too, their recreated versions are looking good here!

Redcoat History has a new video up, busting some myths about riflemen during the American Revolution. Part one looks at the Revolutionary forces, and part two will cover the Crown forces. I helped write it, so all views are much appreciated! youtube.com/watch?v=dsp2OO…

Today in 1782 the battle of the Saintes, the largest naval battle of the American Revolution, was fought near Dominica in the Caribbean. Often ignored in later histories because it occurred after Yorktown, it helped Britain regain the global strategic initiative. A future thread!
