Bernardo de Gálvez: Forgotten Hero of the American Revolution
28/04/2026 | 16 mins.
When Americans tell the story of the Revolutionary War, the focus usually falls on Washington, Jefferson, and the battles fought in the thirteen colonies.
Yet independence was also won through foreign support. Some of it, in France's case, was quite overt. Spain also supported the American cause, but its support was more covert.
At the center of it all was a Spanish commander whose campaigns crippled Britain and helped make victory at Yorktown possible. His name is little known today, but his impact was enormous.
Learn more about Bernardo de Gálvez and Spain’s hidden role in the American Revolution on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
