 oin Landmark Events historians Bill Potter and Dan Ford on the battlefields and in the buildings where the foundations of our nation were forged. We will travel to Brandywine, Valley Forge and Princeton studying the battles fought by the rag-tag Continental Army against the most powerful army in the world, Great Britain. It was a time filled with remarkable events that can only be attributed to the Hand of God.

Let No One Despise Your Youth
In his book, 1776, author David McCullough noted “...at such times many were being cast in roles seemingly beyond their experience and capacities ... George Washington was Commander in Chief at only 43, John Hancock was President of the Continental Congress at 39, John Adams was forty, and Thomas Jefferson a mere 32.” Together, we will learn the stories of these, and many more, remarkable and resilient men, benefitting from their example.
