Key Battles of the Revolutionary War

By: James Early & Scott Rank
  • Summary

  • The Revolutionary War started when a few colonists fired their muskets against the British Empire, then the world's military superpower. It ended—against all reasonable expectations— with an independent American and the ideas of liberty and self-governance spreading across the globe. All that happened because the rebels won the major battles. This podcast dives deep into each of them.

    Mar 27 2020
    Spycraft was seen as a treacherous craft, but it was necessary to win a war. Washington knew this, as his early attempts to gather intelligence on British-occupied New York led to an execution of Nathan Hale, a young school teacher. More sophisticated networks developed, particularly the Culper Spy ring, which involved a farmer, a whaleboat captain, a tavern owner, and a slave.

typical woke spin and rewriting of history.

terrible back stories. this was not a organic food paradise. most meats were smoked or cured. people are what was local. water frequently was filled with bacteria causing cholera. I wouldn't give 2 cents for this bull crap. the age of enlightenment doesn't mean they stopped believing in God. you 2 are huge morons or purposeful liars.
