The Battle of the Hook, a lesser-known but pivotal engagement closely tied to the Siege of Yorktown, took place in Gloucester County, Virginia. Far more than a simple clash of armies, it was a dramatic confrontation between two formidable adversaries. On one side stood British Banastre Tarleton, opposing him was the French Duke of Lauzun. This was a face-to face encounter on the battlefield, where the survival of the American nation hung in the balance.
