The Battle of Blue Licks, fought on August 19, 1782, was one of the last battles of the American Revolutionary War. The battle occurred ten months after Lord Cornwallis's surrender at Yorktown, which had effectively ended the war in the east. On a hill next to the Licking River in what is now Robertson County, Kentucky (then Fayette County, Virginia), a force of about 50 Loyalists along with 300 indigenous warriors ambushed and routed 182 Kentucky militiamen, who were partially led by Daniel Boone. It was the last victory for the Loyalists and natives during the frontier war. British, Loyalist and Native forces would engage in fighting with American forces once more the following month in Wheeling, West Virginia, during the Siege of Fort Henry.

  • La bataille de Blue Licks est l'une des dernières batailles de la guerre d'indépendance des États-Unis. Elle a eu lieu le 19 août 1782, dix mois après la reddition de Charles Cornwallis à Yorktown qui mit un terme à la guerre dans l'est.

  • La battaglia di Blue Licks, combattuta il 19 agosto 1782, fu una delle ultime battaglie della guerra d'indipendenza americana. Avvenne dieci mesi dopo la famosa resa di Lord Cornwallis a Yorktown, che aveva concluso la guerra ad est. Su una collina nei pressi del fiume nell'attuale Contea di Robertson (ma che allora era la ), un gruppo di circa 50 lealisti statunitensi e canadesi con 300 nativi americani tesero un'imboscata e sconfissero 182 milizie del Kentucky. Fu la peggiore sconfitta subita dal Kentucky nella guerra di frontiera. (it)
