This video series by BYU TV is excellent and definitely worth watching. This is one episode of particular interest to Appleseeders: http://www.byutv.byu.edu/seethegood/post/Traveling-the-Midnight-Ride.aspx (http://www.byutv.byu.edu/seethegood/post/Traveling-the-Midnight-Ride.aspx) There are many more which chronicle the American Revolution from the beginning to end and seem to be historically pretty accurate. Enjoy!
The speakers delivery and style is good. Student's will not likely nod off at lunchtime with him as speaker.
But the historical script writers need to correct the historical gaffes.
Also his writers needed to drive home the point of the spear on a few items and clarify other points.
They sorta stopped at the 2nd Strike, which could have been better BTW. Would like to have seen his version of the Third Strike and omit Bunker/Breed's Hill.
I realize there are time limitations on productions like these.
But as Appleseeder's, we notice these things.
I am glad more folks are stepping up to get our heritage out there! So a big thanks to BYUTV!
Again, good overall engaging presentation. He would hold his audience well. O0
There are a few mistakes in the story, but it's pretty cool.
