I’m not watching that show. History might expose me to the Confederate Battle Flag, which would be bad. I’ll get my facts from Hillary, Obama, and MSNBC, since they are unbiased and they know what I need to know.
This is hosted by Forrest Sawyer. Is it told from a liberal perspective?
Watched some of it. It looks good! Thanks for posting it.

You can also download the series on torrent...just sayin’

Thanks for the referral.
Thanks for the heads up on this. It seems like ever since the Civil War we’ve had a ton of historical and literary resources to dig into but there’s just not the historical breath and “bird’s eye view” first hand accounts of the Revolutionary War as there are the other American Wars. Or at least its harder to find. So this series will be appreciated.

It is quite a good series; however, the parallels with today are frightening. We could remain united for another generation, or, with the right mistakes from someone who wants to fundamentally transform a free country into something completely different, we could enter our second civil war within an incredibly short time.
I pray that we can both protect our freedom and avoid that war, but I know which of the two is more important.

Thank you for sharing. I watched it throughout the night.

I am on the second episode now. This program is very informative. None of what was to transpire happened without great provocation of Parliment and the Crown’s agents.
Thank you so much for posting this!
