The Siege of Savannah was a military conflict that took place from September 16 to October 18, 1779, during the American Revolutionary War. It involved a combined force of American and French troops attempting to recapture the city of Savannah, Georgia, from British control. The siege was marked by a series of assaults and defensive maneuvers, but ultimately, the allied forces were unable to breach the British defenses. The siege concluded with a decisive British victory, solidifying their hold on Savannah. This battle was significant as it demonstrated the challenges faced by the American and French forces in their efforts to gain control over southern territories during the war. The failure at Savannah delayed the American campaign in the South for several years.
