From the first stirrings of discontent to independence and the ratification of the Constitution, FOUNDING FATHERS reveals the personalities behind the legends and offers an intimate take on the pivotal events in the creation of the nation.

George Washington: American Revolutionary DVD
Fighting for the British, he lost the first battle he ever commanded. Fighting against them, he turned the tide on a war many thought was doomed from the start. George Washington was forced into early adulthood at age 11, when his father died. The future hero trained as a surveyor, but longed to follow in his half brother's footsteps and join a British Regiment. BIOGRAPHY® recounts how he did this, volunteering for a dangerous assignment in 1753. But his destiny lay with a nation yet to be founded. Through brilliant commentary and extensive archival material, this authoritative portrait traces his life and career, concentrating on the 10 days in 1776 when his inspired leadership turned the tide of the Revolutionary War. From the legends surrounding his childhood to his tenure as America's first president, BIOGRAPHY® tells the story of the man who was, in every way, the father of our country.
Thomas Jefferson: Philosopher of FreedomThomas Jefferson: Philosopher Of Freedom DVD
Statesman, scientist, architect, president he was America's dashing Renaissance man; but his personal affairs suggest a life that was anything but perfect. Thomas Jefferson was one of the first great thinkers of the fledgling United States. As a member of the Continental Congress, he drafted the Declaration of Independence. As president he fought tirelessly for free speech and U.S. expansion. As a gentleman farmer he studied botany, meteorology, and designed the magnificent neo-classic Monticello. But outside the stuffy rigors of public life, Jefferson was a different man. Did he really father several illegitimate children by his slave, Sally Hemmings? Was he involved in a messy affair while serving as Minister to France? Why did he die with debts of over $100,000? Put aside the textbook tales for a candid look at the unpredictable life of one of our nation's greatest leaders.
Patrick Henry: Voice Of Liberty DVD
He is remembered for seven words: "Give me liberty of give me death." More than any other founding father he represented the power of the ordinary citizens of the new nation. Patrick Henry rose from simple roots to mingle with the colonial aristocracy, helping blaze the trail to freedom alongside Thomas Jefferson and George Washington. While others led men through the influence of position, wealth, and education, Henry staked his claim on the power of his voice. He was, without a doubt, the greatest orator of his age. BIOGRAPHY. tells his story through expert commentary, period accounts and artifacts, and revealing excerpts from Henry's speeches and writings. Discover how the speaker balanced his rhetoric with a keen political sense, and how he never wavered in his defense of individual liberty, fearing that the Constitution paved the way for domination by a central government. Fiery, outspoken, yet personally prudent, Patrick Henry was the first voice of the American people, the pied piper of liberty.
