This episode we look at the final days of Bacon's Rebellion. We examine how the English deal with the situation once they arrive in the colonies, and how Governor Berkeley adjusts to the changing dynamic. We then spend the second half of the episode looking at the legacy of Bacon's Rebellion and attempting to put it into the context of the American colonial experience.
