America :The story of US - REVOLUTION!

Full episode

What better way to spend your 4th of July than learn a little about your country?

It's a pretty well done documentary on our revolution, with more 'behind the scenes' type information that you don't learn in school.

I considered myself pretty well versed on the revolution, but had no idea that 3x as many patriots died in P.O.W. prison ships in New York Harbor, than died in actually fighting the war..
