The Founding of America

History

The inspiring early days of America- the personalities, the battles, the bravery, the losses, and even the romance- spring to life in spellbinding detail in this sweeping 14-DVD set from A&E Home Video.

Founding Fathers and Founding Brothers examine the relationships of the very human men who risked their fortunes and lives for independence. The Revolution recounts great battles, devastating losses, and miraculous victories. Ben Franklin and Benedict Arnold: A Question of Honor look at the critical roles played by both men - one a hero, the other a traitor - while Washington the Warrior and The Crossing pay tribute to the soul-stirring leadership of our first president.

Featuring performances by Kelsey Grammar, Aidan Quinn, and Jeff Daniels, rare archival material, and commentary by leading historians, The Founding of America presents historical programming at its comprehensive best.
