A Day-by-Day Journey Through Each Year of the American Revolution

Travel chronologically through the American Revolutionary era, one month and one year at a time. The Chronicle covers every year from 1770 through 1783, beginning with the growing colonial resistance before the outbreak of war and continuing through American independence and peace.

Each monthly page moves day by day through one selected year. Every date presents What Happened and explains its Importance, while specially marked Consequential Days identify developments of exceptional significance.

Use the selector above to choose any year and month. The Chronicle reorganizes the historical information from the companion Today in the American Revolution website so that readers can follow events continuously through a particular month and year.

“The preservation of the sacred fire of liberty, and the destiny of the republican model of government, are justly considered, perhaps, as deeply, as finally, staked on the experiment entrusted to the hands of the American people.”

— George Washington

This website was conceived and primarily designed by Ray Winstead. It is a chronological reorganization of the separately developed website Today in the American Revolution. The historical research and initial webpage construction were completed by ChatGPT under the continuing supervision, corrections, and modifications of Ray Winstead.
