Rating:  - Best Historical Documentary I've Seen In Years
I've been a fan of American Revolutionary History for many years and so after joining Netflix, I ordered this documentary to see if I would like it. I only had to watch one or two episodes before I knew I was going to love this series. It has provided me with the clearest and most comprehensive understanding of the Revolution of anything I've studied so far, and I think the history and narrative are very honest and fair in their accuracy--not just another remake by some liberal with an underlying ...

Rating: - Well Done, Engaging, Informative
Who ever said watching TV isn't good for you?
If you watch this series, you'll learn so much about our brave American founding fathers and what Independence Day is really about. You'll know why George Washington was the first president of these United States and have a greater sense of what that means.
I'd say something like this is a must see for all Americans.
Rating: - A Primer On America
It has often been said that you don't know who you are until you know where you have been. The story of the American Revolution comes to life through brilliantly portrayed scenes and narratives.

I think to truly appreciate that American Revolution, you must see it and read about it from many different sources, both revolutionists and loyalists to get a real feel ... Read More
Rating: - HC: The Revolution
An in-depth coverage of the American Revolution. I like the live reenactments at Valley Forge, etc. I will show some segments of this for my history class, but it would be much too long to show in its entirety.
Rating: - The Revolution
This story is very good. We have enjoyed it immensely. I highly recommend this for a good history of the early days that isn't boring.
