As we finish up our third year, the Rebeccas cover the amazing story of General George Washington's clever plan to launch a sneak attack against the wintering British Army in Trenton, New Jersey right before Christmas, making it a wonderful American Christmas tale....just like Die Hard is an American Christmas movie!

Happy Holidays from the team at Tour Guide Tell All!
