  • For those of us who are really “into” THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION this is new, interesting, and
    very good. Congratulations of getting it all together .
    i am interested in the 1776 -83 era – and, of course- the Revolution / having had at least one
    “Ancestor” ( JAMES L. CAMPBELL) who fought at the Battle of COOCHES BRIDGE and was
    at VALLEY FORGE.
    As a lifetime member of the Philadelphia based – SONS OF THE REVOLUTION – it really gives
    so many people an opportunity to learn so much more about the War and what it started…the
    UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
    Respectfully
