I guess it depends on who you were captured by

You mention the American revolution. The prisoners from Kings mountain were treated apallingly (those who were not simply strung up I mean)
And in Simcoes journal he talks about how when a prisoner he was treated with civilty in one town but lucky to escape with his life in another.

As for the Napoleonic wars well even that was argubly more preferable to being caputred in Russia where you could be buried alive or stripped naked in an icy winter or simply treated with kindess and respect depending on the mood of the average Cossack.

In the British civil wars the Roundheads started strining up irish soldiers captured till Prince Rupert started doing the same with theres in response and it stopped
