Immediately, Washington had brigades march onto the commons of the city to have the Declaration of Independence read aloud.
“Why should I trade one tyrant 3000 miles away for 3000 tyrants one mile away?” (The Patriot, DVD) an interesting phrase from the Revolutionary War movie The Patriot said by Benjamin Martin starring Mel Gibson who was stating in South Carolina assembly. The audience that watched the movie, considered it as a secondary source. It is considered so because The Patriot is historically inaccurate in the depiction of how the wars were executed, the dramas created between scenes, and anachronism errors in the movie. There have been wars during the American Revolution, both large-scale wars causing many casualties or even small-scaled wars in small towns, which are shown in this movie. However, the wars are often blown out of proportion and are
Source B9 is clear in doing this, Josh Brooman comes to the conclusion that Dunkirk was ‘a great defeat’ by focussing on the ’70,000’ men that were killed wounded or taken prisoner, the abandonment of ‘150,000’ French allies and the number of rifles and vehicles left behind. Source B9 also tells us that behind closed doors even Winston Churchill called Dunkirk ‘the greatest military defeat for many centuries’. As Prime Minister, Winston Churchill knew this information would have damaged the morale of the British people, which he didn’t want to do during a war. Although Source B9 fails to tell us how may soldiers were successfully evacuated from Dunkirk, and could be seen as one-sided, I don’t think this takes away from the reliability as it was written by a school history textbook

Germain, and the windows in front, looking over the garden of the Tuileries and Place Concorde, the most general and comprehensive view that was to be had from any point that could have been selected. Under our eyes in front, the immense area of the garden of the Tuileries was packed with human beings, forming but one black and dotted mass of some hundreds of thousands who were gathered to listen to the magnificent orchestra of music, and to see and salute, with “Vive le Roi!” “Vive la Reine!” and “Vive le Comte de Paris!” the royal family as they appeared in the balcony. Though it appeared as if every part of the gardens was filled, there was still a black and moving mass pouring through Rue Rivoli, Rue Castiglione, Rue Royale, and Place Concorde, all concentrating in the garden of the Tuileries. This countless mass of human beings continued to gather until the hour when their Majesties entered the balcony, and then, all hats off, there was a shout, as vast and incomputable as the mass itself, of “Vive le Roi! Vive le Roi!
