Shownotes Transcript

What about the British Redcoats? When we discuss the military history of the American War for Independence, we tend to focus on specific battles or details about the men who served in George Washington’s Continental Army.  Rarely do we take the opportunity to ask questions about the approximately 50,000 men who served in the British Army that opposed them. Don N. Hagist), independent scholar and author of British Soldiers, American War: Voices of the American Revolution), leads us on exploration of the “other” men who fought in the American War for Independence, the soldiers in the British Army.
