This selection was a awsome story because you learn alot from the british soldiers and the patriots about how they began a war or end a war or how the patriots survive

These are some really good comments. I like how Marrissa, D.J. and Taylor answered the question.
I like how Kristen S. and Destiny give an opinion and support it with information from the stories.
I don’t know if I understood Erick’s post. The first sentence is good, but I didn’t understand what not having water had to do with taxes? Back then, people did not usually pay for water.
