I take it you’re not watching. It’s a well done series based on an excellent book.

Agreed! It's very well done and pretty riveting stuff! I'll happily admit that I am hooked. Though I'll hold my verdict on accuracy until a few more episodes in. They may yet embellish something that could be considered a stretch. It is HBO, after all.

Well done enough I had tears when the men, wounded and dead, passed the Adams house and they were giving them water.

Seems we forget to soon, what sacrifices, all these brave men did for us, and the women who grieved for them at home.

The only problem I have is when Ben Franklin was reviewing the draft of the declaration with Adams and Jefferson and he about a line in it being too pulpity or preachy as if to insinuate faith has no part in the declaration of independence. Other than that the series has been just great so far.

I haven't seen the series as I don't (won't) have HBO but you're right, the book is excellent.
