On this week’s Dispatches, host Brady Crytzer interviews author and JAR contributor Michael Cecere about how each colony prepared its militia as war with Great Britain became more of a possibility in 1774 and 1775.
New episodes of Dispatches are available for free every Sunday evening (Eastern United States Time), first on iTunes, Stitcher, Google Play, Amazon Music, and the JAR Dispatches web site. The following week, the episode is rebroadcast on our new JAR YouTube channel. Dispatches can also be accessed on the JAR main menu.
