SUMMARY:The Revolutionary War
DESCRIPTION:Most Americans simply do not know very much about the Revolutionary War.   \nAlthough certain images from the Revolutionary War are seared into our memory – Washington Crossing the Delaware  and the signing of the Declaration of Independence –  many people would be hard-pressed to name a major battle\, a leading general or even how the War For Independence ended.  Recent events in America have caused some to question whether we should even have statues of George Washington on public display. \nTHE REVOLUTIONARY WAR\n In this four-part series on the Revolutionary War we will examine why the freest and most prosperous colonials in the world decided to declare independence from a mother country that had protected them. We will look at the roots of the war\, the Declaration of Independence\, the early battles including Lexington\, Concord\, and Bunker Hill before transitioning into a longer look at the seven years of fighting necessary for America to begin its experiment in participatory democracy. We will also look at the amazing and diverse leaders who guided America. Benjamin Franklin\,James Monroe\, John Adams\, Paul Revere\, George Washington\, Thomas Jefferson\, and Alexander Hamilton will be some of the people whom we will meet. I encourage you to learn more about how America came to be! \nCOST: \nI am asking for a suggested contribution of $5.00 from everyone who registers for the class.

SUMMARY:George Washington: The Perfect Man For America
DESCRIPTION:George Washington is America’s greatest hero. He was our greatest soldier. He was also our greatest President.  His contemporaries already knew that he was a man whose importance to the nation could never be questioned.  One of the most honored statesman of the day had this to say when Washington died: \n \nHe was tall\, athletic and absolutely fearless. Yet his career was spotted before Congress appointed him as the head of the Continental Army\, Click here to read a fascinating account of why he is still the highest ranking American military officer of all time. Although we remember him as a great General\, his first year of command was disastrous!   \nBut then at the Battle Of Trenton.  \nGeneral Washington’s courage\, daring and heroic leadership  became evident to the world. That battle is best remembered for the breathtaking crossing of the Delaware River\, but it also holds the amazing distinction of the first military battle ever fought in an urban setting! The Battle Of Trenton directly changed the course of the history of America – and the entire world! \n \nClick here to read more about why the Battle of Trenton is so important to the history of the world. \nAfter the Revolution\, of course\, Washington’s fame and importance only grew. As our the first President of the United States\, he helped turn America from a series of promises laid out in the Declaration of Independence into a living Republic that continues to shine as a beacon of freedom and hope to people and nations around the world. \nThis multimedia presentation will offer new perspective on the personality of the greatest American of all time! \n  \n\nCOST: \nA suggested donation of $5.00. Please mark WASHINGTON on your payment! \nCash/Check Payable to Barry Bradford \nBarry Bradford \nP.O.
