    I walk my dog out there every day. I’m amazed each time I go. It never gets old.

    Our Republic was hard won through incredible bravery, great sacrifice, suffering and loss of life. Damned if we're going to lose Her during my watch.

    Washington’s greatest strength was ability to listen and yield to the wisdom of others. His ego didn’t get in the way. That’s a very rare quality.

    I've learned so much about the Civil War after finding your YouTube channel. Thank you for all you do to educate us, and maybe more importantly thank you for your work to preserve these precious sites.

    Love what you guys do! I am intrigued with both the Revolution and Civil wars. Thanks for the in depth history of both!

    Born in Boston in 1960 we grew up being taught the sacrifice and about the brave men who are responsible for our freedoms, from the 1st grade at school we would all stand with our hand over our heart reciting the pledge of allegiance, staring at the huge flag in every school room, it's the reason I'm free and able to live free of persecution and follow my dreams, I think people forget what those men accomplished back then, we must never forget why we're free human beings.🙏🇺🇸
  • Thank you so much for 2020. Bringing the positive into our home filled with education and fun. Wow! Happy New Year and God Bless You and your family and friends!

    Thank you so much for this video. I was stationed in Yorktown in the 1990"s
  • I was wondering when the name Hamilton was going to rise. From the Broadway play, I now have an understanding about the battle of Yorktown.
  • Being outdoors in the rain in Old Virginia; it makes me wax nostalgic for the days of my youth, hiking, camping, hunting and exploring the Commonwealth and all it's beauty. BTW, Garry is Elvis as usual; total rockstar.

    Seeing the site help put a better understanding of the York town surrender of the British.

    Concise and informative, this is wonderful. Well done ABT, this is a part of American history I find is almost ignored - just great stuff. Hope you all have a 2021 full of tours, shows, and conferences again.
