Question

Which statement BEST summarizes the patriot use of partisan warfare during the American Revolution?

Answer 1

Answer: C) small forces used hit-and-run tactics, which prevented the British from establishing complete control of the south.

Explanation:

Although several of the battles of the American Revolution (1775–1783) were conventional, many soldiers, such as David Wooster, Francis Marion, William R. Davie, Shadrach Inman, and Daniel Morgan, used hit-and-run tactics against the British, with very effective results.

The British didn´t expect the combination of those hit and run tactics, with a strong political strategy meant to weaken the determination of the British to fight in America.

Answer 2

The answer is C - small forces used hit-and-run tactics which prevented the British from establishing complete control of the South.
