Surrender of Lord Cornwallis, 1781

Entitled: "Surrender of Lord Cornwallis at Yorktown, Virginia, October, 1781." Charles Cornwallis, 1st Marquess Cornwallis (December 31, 1738 - October 5, 1805) was an English Army officer and colonial administrator. He is best remembered as one of the leading English generals in the American War of Independence. His surrender at the Siege of Yorktown ended hostilities in North America. George Washington (February 22, 1732 - December 14, 1799) led the American victory over Great Britain in the American Revolutionary War as commander-in-chief of the Continental Army from 1775-83, and presided over the drafting of the Constitution in 1787. Washington became the first president by unanimous choice, and oversaw the creation of a strong, well-financed national government that maintained neutrality in the wars raging in Europe, suppressed rebellion and won acceptance among Americans of all types. His leadership style established many forms and rituals of government that have been used since, such as using a cabinet system and delivering an inaugural address. He died in1799, at the age of 67. He is consistently ranked among the top three presidents of the United States, according to polls of both scholars and the general public.
