Liberty's Kids

I got this on dvd for 5 $.

I was shock how great the show was lol. Yeah it covers the major heros like Washington, Hamilton, and Lafayette, among others. But what makes this show great is the lesser known heros like Sybil, Nathan Hale, Deborah Sampson, John Paul Jones, and James Armistead Lafayette all got time to shine in the series,

It covers events from the Boston Tea Party up to Washington getting election.

Its not 100 percent historic fact of course, but it is a highly underrated series.

Oh yes, I remember this.

It was a staple of my late childhood. I think it was on PBS first, followed by syndication via "The Wonderful World of DIC."
