Average Rating: out of 5 stars
Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Brilliant analysis and presentation of the American Revolution
Tragically, many Americans lack an understanding of the ideals and aims of the American Revolution.This presentation by The History Channel is a superb production that succeeds in doing justice to its great theme.Happily, the historian-commentators are much less annoying in this production than they were in "Founding Fathers" and they actually contribute to it, rather than detract.

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Poor Quality
This documentary is poor quality, and it is exhaustingly repetitive. This 10 hour documentary is actually only about two hours worth of film footage repeated over and over again. I generally enjoy documentaries regarding American history, but this one wore me out!

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Disappointing
I'm afraid I didn't get past the Introduction on this one. It was so full of long clips of "talking heads" interspersed with very short clips of silent action that I completely lost interest. Maybe another viewer has progressed further!

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent summary of the Revolutionary War
I watched this series with my family. It was very well researched and well presented. My 8-year-old son was able to follow and understand easily. I think this series will provide a good summary of this critical period in our nation's history to anyone who needs a crash course on the subject.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent
I can't say enough about this video series.It is so well written and filmed.There were quite a few things I didn't know and found it to be a very useful learning tool.I highly recommend this series to anyone who enjoys historyBravo History Channel.
