Happy Independence Day! In this episode, we've veered off the traditional focus on the Revolution and the Declaration of Independence to focus on the bigger picture of martial conflicts in the years before 1776. Just what was happening to help form the crucible that would produce open rebellion against England? Our guests detail conflicts you may not have heard of that happened on American soil or involved colonists in wider geopolitical issues.
