This week Walter will be talking with documentary filmmaker Ken Burns about the American Revolution, focusing on the routing of the British and their allies by revolutionary Partisans during Cornwallis’ Southern campaign. 

Ken will also tell us a bit about his upcoming PBS documentary, The American Revolution. The six-part, 12-hour documentary series explores the country’s founding struggle and its eight-year War for Independence.

This much-anticipated series will premiere on Sunday, November 16, and will air for six consecutive nights, from 8:00 to 10:00 p.m. on PBS and SCETV. The full series will be available to stream beginning Sunday, November 16 at PBS.org and on the PBS App.
