Declaring independence was one thing, actually winning it was another. We examine the military aspects of the American Revolution, how the war affected the American people, why the Americans won, and the enduring effects of that victory.
Shaping America : U.S. History to 1877 reveals to a present day audience another time in history, where native cultures, newly arriving cultures, ideas and habits formed a new nation that would one day be the most recognized in the world. Through their eyes, we explore these primitive beginnings, wonder at the accomplishments of early settlers despite incredible hardships, examine political leadership and economic growth, and after the sorrow of a bitter Civil War, we share in the hope for "shaping" a new America.
