Comment

In 1782 during the American Revolutionary war, the French attacked various British outposts in the Caribbean and island of Saint Kitts was no exception. In the battle of Brimstone Hill French troops laid siege to the fortress there for a month before the British finally surrendered and the French controlled the island. After roughly a year, the Treaty of Paris returned Saint Kitts and neighboring Nevis to British rule.
