American Revolutionary War 4.25"

The British King, George III, decided that he must punish the disobedient colonists in North America for their refusal to submit to his authority and pay taxes to the British Crown. He sent his army, commanded by Lord Cornwallis to subdue the revolutionaries. This splendid Studio Anne Carlton chess set features many of the famous historical characters of the period. George Washington, Betsy Ross, Benjamin Franklin and Paul Revere are just a few who played an important part in the struggle to claim independence from the British Crown. Our artists and sculptors have created this chess set to enable you to re-live some of the major battles and engagements and perhaps … who knows… alter the course of history.
