Being British this is all new history to me, cuz funnily enough we are taught next to nothing in UK schools about the war of independence. Please keep up the great work your work is greatly appreciated.
😅👍🏻
Why didn't they teach about it in British schools? Probably because it doesn't portray the Empire in a glorious way. In the United States, there hasn't been much teaching about the Revolutionary War
In the past 20 years or so either. It's intended to make the people complacent and soft.
I wonder why?😁🇺🇸🦅🇬🇧
that's cause they got their "crowned" faint panty-stocking asses whipped by likkered up murrican rednecks fighting for their lives, wives, kids and freedom
Good or bad, all history should be taught. Glad you came here to learn.
its funny hearing him say CON-CORD...we pronounce it CONG-KID. A lot of the time people who live in this region take these beautiful areas for granted and never really dig deep into the history. It's refreshing to see you bring our history to the forefront
Yes. Or concerd for the learned
Yes, his southern drawl reminds me of AI. Bahn n raised theya. 😘
Yup so true! Conkid!!
its driving me nuts hearing him pronounce it so wrong
I usually tell folks that around here it’s Conc-ord, not Con-cord, and it’s Peab-ody, not Pea-body! 😂
Well done! As a Concord historian I'm usually wary of non-Concordians telling "our" story. I know, snotty AF. But you did well! And you spotlighted the Barrett farm! Kudos!
Thanks! I really do appreciate that.
Can’t wait for the next episode. You are a very talented guy with telling these stories of our history!
Thanks 🙏🏼
I am so grateful that you have finally begun The Revolution trail. Thank you for bringing us along.
My pleasure! It's been fun. Hope that people are sharing these out with others.
Thanks for this video! Years ago my family would go to Concord every fourth of July to visit relatives. We would feast on a lobster dinner, they were cooked outside in a large metal trough, then head out to see the historic sights. Those were great days!
👍🏻
I lived on Thoreau st and the April 19th parade would come past my house every year. Love that town-despite the woke asshats that now control it. Hopefully Concord will shake them off as they did the regulars.
I am loving this series, and it’s coming at a perfect time. My daughter will be taking high school US history next semester, so over the Christmas break we will be watching. These videos act as a perfect visual learning experience! Keep up the great work!
Awesome! Thanks for sharing these with her. Maybe it can be of use in her class as well.
That's what these videos are all about and thank you for being a responsible parent who is interested in their child's education.
Fascinating series! Thanks for taking us along and walking us through history! You do it so well!
👍🏻
Thanks for your videos. I'm 62 and I've learned so much from your videos. Learned about the Civil War and others but nothing about the American revolution in school. Thanks for the good work you do.
👍🏻
This makes my heart full of pride in these daring,forward thinking and brave patriots!
When I lived in Bedford for a year I walked the whole battle trail from Lexington to Concord and back many times. Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter. You can utterly feel the history. Thanks for this great video series.
Amazing place. Thanks!
You're doing this subject justice JD. It's one of my favorires. I've been there dozens of times over the years, and know this story well - as well as some interesting back stories. Contrary to Longellows poem about the Midnight Ride of Paul Revere , it was actually young Dr. Samuel Prescott, who warned the town of Concord that the British soldiers were coming. He is one of the unsung heroes of that day. Revere was given the credit because he was a well connected, wealthy, city boy. Poor Samuel was believed to have died in a British prison, in 1777. However, his home still stands next door to Louisa May Alcott's home (of Little Women fame).
Thanks for that extra info!
I haven't watched this particular video yet, however, I just wanted to drop a thanks for all the work you are putting into your channel. I am a huge history nut and you have quickly become one of my go to channels to watch.
I really do appreciate that. Thank you.
Very good show
You are the master of the slow pan shot. I really appreciate the work you put into every video you create. May you and your family have a happy and blessed Christmas!
🙏🏼
Most of my family was in Long Island and Conn. The Youngs and Hallocks the to fought the British in the Revolutionary war. They came here to better themselves in 1640 thank you for sharing
🇺🇸
Thank you, we learn so much about our American and world history from your well done videos.
Thanks 🙏🏼
I am loving these videos. I through the years have been going through an evolution. I started with an obsession with WW2. Then started getting very interested in the Civil War. Now I am getting very into the Revolution. Has anyone else followed a similar path?
I have always loved learning about this period in our history. Thank you for doing such a great job explaining and showing.
👍🏻🇺🇸
I grew up in concord. Everyday afterschool we'd trek to Walden Pond and swim. Great history.
Every year there is a reenactment there on the Patriots Day holiday, which is always a Monday. Definitely worth a visit
Thanks for the heads up!
Thank you for a clear and concise history of this area. I used to travel it daily, but never understood as clearly as now the history.
Glad it was helpful!
Lexington was not a skirmish or battle. It was the Regulars telling the townspeople to disperse so they fat stabbed them.
The Minutemen knew the territory. Every stone wall and tree were cover for them. The British in their red uniforms were sitting ducks plus they marched close together so they were easily picked off. Great video and can’t wait to see the next one. 👍😁
Got the run and gun episode coming up next.
@@TheHistoryUnderground Yesss!!!👍♥️
The British did have Light Infantry which did flanking movements against the Militia. Ultimately though. the militia and minuteman groups began pouring in with vast numbers and the British retreat was nearly a complete rout. Lord Percy’s relief column (armed with 2 field pieces) saved the British Expedition.
They sure did know the territory!!! Weird tho all that big dig stuff going on. Even at Plymouth Harbor. Well way back wasnt there land sold Plymouth Harbor, Salem, Hanscom AFB too i believe and Maine. Salame. I will go see if you want me to show you. It is in one of my old books. I used to love going to the Old North Bridge. It was a bit of as shock when i visited and all the trees were gone. They told me they did it to make it more like it used to be. Idk. They did leave the initial tree. 😊 Pretty cool thing i learned on my journey with Jesus the Christ. Concord ance and lexington lexicon. Samuel adams. Paul Revere's God Almighty, The Most High, The Heavenly Father and The Son, Jesus the Christ our Saviour. Meriam's corner (the turn) from or back to God Almighy the Elohym of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob which is great and all written in the bible, the Good News. God is real! My brother used to hang out at the armory. Today I put on God's armor first but looks like they did too when i read the antique books. That place was really cool. Oh I could go on and on. I have learned sooooo much more since receiving Jesus in my life and following Him with all my heart. The Heavenly Father is so much a part of our history. Anyhow, I knew a Blue Angel from there too. Oh yeah, was different back then there was a restaurant called Willow Pond Kitchen. People from all over would visit it. Thats gone now but yeah. Thanks for sharing your video.
You are providing location and context which has not been possible from where I sit out west. The paper in books becoming virtual. Much appreciated, Thank You!!
👍🏻😊
Love this area! We have been to the Lexington-Concord area many times. Our sons were young enough to learn the story. We crossed The Old North Bridge and toured the house. They really enjoyed that! Thank you for telling the story of this area!
Brilliant! Once again, you show nothing beats the length and breadth of actually being on the ground where the struggle took place. Several thoughts have come to mind about what happened. One, would I be able to count on my neighbors to stand with me should something like this happen today? Second, the Crown Troops Intel was poor, as they should never have stepped out of Boson with every tree and stone wall would conceal an angry Colonial. It was a shame they would leave their dead and wounded on the field but they seem to have a habit of that. Five hours north of us near Mackinac City they had a garrison about the same time as the revolution, they had found a couple graves where they would bury soldiers where they died of natural causes. Can’t wait for the next one as I know what is coming but never have seen the actual sites.
Thanks for the kind words! And yes, it seems strange that the British regulars didn't really have their finger on the pulse of what was going on there.
Just absolutely fascinating!! What wonderful work your doing for such a time as this!! I hope in the near future your able to spend more time on the revolution!! You are adding as much to this country as any serving patriot has given. Thank you for bringing alive what every American should know!!
Thanks! Hope that people are sharing these out to others.
Amazing walk thru of our History! Thank you.
Your videos should be shown in classrooms all around the country.
As a homeschooling parent, I may use these to teach them more on American History.
Excellent video. I am loving this series. You are doing an outstanding job, as always. Been to Lexington/Concord many times. One of my favorite historical places. JD, if you're ever in that neck of the woods again, you need to go about 35 minutes down the road to Sudbury and dine at Longfellow's Wayside Inn. A tad pricey, but it's one of those "you gotta do it once" things. Really cool place.....period 18th century dining rooms, and artifacts from the Lexington/Concord battle. Worth another trip there.
Wow sounds fantastic! Wish I could go but circumstances prevent it.
Oh man. Thanks for the heads up!
@@TheHistoryUnderground wish I had known when you were filming this series because I would've mentioned it to you then. At any rate, hopefully you can make a trip back to Lexington/Concord at some point and dine at Longfellow's Wayside Inn. Very cool place.
Very cool! Can't wait to see the battle road. Love the Barret house. I love those old colonial style houses.
👍🏻
Thanks for covering this battle, the Part 2 of the start of the American Revolution.
I hope you took time to go eat and visit the gift shop of the Concord Inn. There are legends of ghosts there too 🤣.
Nevertheless, the food and beer was awesome. And to sit in the same room, by the fireplace, where officers and leaders would have made many of their plans to defend the land from the Brittish was a humbling experience. When I took my junior officers on a battlefield tour a few years ago, we ended the day with dinner there for that very experience.
Sounds like a good excuse for me to go back. 🙂
There's something about going to places with such history and power behind them. I've never been able to make it up to the northeast, but I've been other historic locations that hold that power. Most notably is Dachau near Munich. It made my knees weak around there. It would be a different feeling to be in a place like the Concord Inn where the impact of those ghosts was hugely positive. Some day.....
This is great. Thank you JD and wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas 👍🏼😎
Thanks!
Absolutely love this series so far! One of my favorite people from the battle of Lexington and Concord is Samuel Whittemore. Very cool guy.
👊🏻
Samual Whittimore was not a man at all! He was an enraged machine! Can you imagine what he’d be like today!!??
Once again you knocked it out of the park.
🙏🏼
Another excellent installment of this series JD.
👊🏻
So loving about hearing history, this guy really gets his point across love him
👊🏻
Love this Revolutionary series… thank you
So glad!
My family and I visited here in 2008. I remember standing on the Green at Lexington and being very sobered at the thought of theme that took a stand on that very spot, and how some gave their lives. Definitely a place I will visit again.
Really enjoyed the videos on the American Revolution. I see you have partnered with the Gettysburg Museum. Awesome. Your videos are so well edited and your explanations are very informative. Please continue with the Revolution.
Thanks! Appreciate that.
Thank you ... I am learning so much. I guess at 71-years-of-age it is about time.
Always learning! Thanks!
Great video, but all I could think of is poor Phyllis getting angrier and angrier 😆
Phyllis is going to light the comment section up when she sees this one. 😅
GREAT VIDEO! 👏🏻 and again thank you for showing us these great historic places . Looking forward to the next episode . Was a bad day for the British Army . 🇬🇧🇺🇸
Yes, it was. Thanks!
Our own government should pay attention. Americans know that guns guarantee our rights…then, and now.
@@jimreilly917 On a different subject I was at a castle in England today looking at objects older than the US 😆
@JH88 two things separate the American from the English: a common language, and
In England 100 miles is a long distance.
In America 100 years is a long time.
Merry Christmas and have a Blessed New Year.
@@jimreilly917 🤣👏🏻 . Happy Christmas and a Happy New Year to you too! . 🍻
I've always loved history. You bring it to life, and show us the beautiful parts of the U.S. I've never seen or been to. Thank you for all your efforts to educate the curious minds of history
"students".
Being American to the core but having British family makes me appreciate this time period in our shared history. The two of us 🇺🇸🇬🇧are forever tied at the hip. Might as well learn as much from each perspective as we can.
👍🏻
Very interesting video JD I think it's great that you are doing a series of the revolution war. I have a side note for you to possibly consider doing, and it is have you thought about adding photos of the monuments and places you have been to your merch store?? I would definitely be interested in getting a few of them.
Hmmm. Interesting thought. Thanks!
Am really enjoying visiting these Revolutionary locations with you! I really look forward to each new installment. So well done, thanks so much!
👍🏻
This video is so amazing to me because you're teaching me things that happened 20 miles away from where I live. My thing is it's to bad Paul Revere couldn't have had some of our Samuel Adams larger!
Thanks! Loved my time in that area.
Revere may have drunk beer Sam Adams actually brewed😁😎
I so much enjoy every video you make, i am direct descendant of the signers, and am very proud of my heritage and these great men and women who gave so much for us now the free people of the great United States, my family including myself has served in every war since this beginning, and sir tell the history with such distinction and respect, god bless you for all your devotion to preserving our nation’s history
🇺🇸👍🏻
I absolutely LOVE your telling of History and how you explain the events! History Channel needs to give you a show!
Ha! Thanks! Appreciate that. Probably too ugly for History Channel though.
I grew up in Massachusetts and every time I go home to see family I end up at this exact spot. So much incredible history in that area. Thanks for taking me on one of my favorite walks even though I’m in the other side of the country!
As I was watching this and seeing all the people in the background, a thought came to me. How cool would it be to be at a location at the same time that JD was there doing his thing and actually getting to meet him! It would surely be an honor!
You would actually get to see how dumb I look pointing that dang camera at myself and tromping through the fields. 😅
Thanks JD, your talent for history is appreciated in bringing attention back to the Revolutionary War. Looking forward to following where it leads. Hoping Saratoga and West Point finds it's way to be retold along the way. Regards, Ben.
I am absolutely loving this series about the revolutionary it's a big part of your channel that's been missing but it is being filled
Thanks! Appreciate that. Hope that people are sharing these out with others.
Paul Revere yes, but he didn't make it to Concord. Samuel Prescott did however. One of my favorite books about the subject was by David Hackett Fisher , "Paul Revere's Ride". Love the content!
👍🏻
We were there in 2014, what an interesting place. Well done park. Great storyboards.
👍🏻
I was so excited to see the Old Manse. Having visited Concord that was one place that we missed. Being there by the “rude (ie. rustic) bridge” it was thrilling knowing that this was where the Revolutionary War began.
These citizens of a British colony had been pushed to their limits by a tyrant government. Our Federal government should head the past to avoid the same fate as King George. History is a learning experience to avoid the same mistakes.
God bless our Republic.
Tyranny at any level tends to fail.
King George III was not a tyrant.
So appreciative of these videos ... Many thanks ... Look forward to the next episodes.
👍🏻
Your videos are AWESOME!!! This is my favorite period of american history. I have learned so much. It surprises me that the houses you pointed out are in derelict condition. This is pretty important history!
Another great video JD! Please know your content is always appreciated brother. Merry Christmas!
🙏🏼
I remember in school having to recite the poem the shot heard around the world.
🇺🇸
I was just in Boston for work, decided to check out Concord, what a charming town, but the North Bridge was very cool to see, along with the graves of the British soldiers nearby.
I love your channel. History is my thing. Please keep on going.
👍🏻
I haven't seen that place since 1962 Visited on a field trip in elementary school imagine that! Looking forward to the next one the militia from my home town was involved with that exciting experience. Take care.
Thanks for watching!
Another great series. Wouldn’t expect anything less. All your content is excellent. Love learning more about the revolutionary war and its beginnings!!🇺🇸
🇺🇸👍🏻
Love History and all your presentations. Also, have noticed a nice change of music you have trended towards in your videos. Keep up the good work, it just keeps getting better and better.
Bless You!
Thank you very much!
Abner Hosmer was my great, great (not sure how many greats, lol) uncle. His father, John, lived next to Emerson, and Emerson wrote about his family quite a bit, especially in his journals. His father and either one or two of his brothers also fought at Concord. Abner was the company musician, and when he was killed he was armed only with a fife and a pocketknife.
Great episode, I enjoyed it immensely.
I've been to this location but learned more from your video than when i was physically there. Excellent cinematography... Great views. Looking forward to the next video!!
Oh wow. Thank you. I appreciate that.
Wondeful work once again. I love the way you present history to us.
I am spending the entire day of July 4th watching and learning American history that i never knew or was told of in school. ....Thank you. God Bless you
The townspeople of Concord were upset that there was only one monument on the British side of the bridge. They actually built up a fire around the monument in protest and cracked the obelisk. If you look carefully at the obelisk, you will see the crack midway up on the monument. After that they erected the minuteman statue memorial on the other side. The minuteman statue was done by a world-renowned sculptor named French I believe.
This battle was also the site of the first atrocity of the war which created a hatred between the colonists and the British soldiers. A young man who lived in what is now the Colonial Inn in downtown Concord went to the bridge, where he encountered 2 wounded British soldiers and he butchered them with an ax and killed them. The British returned to the site and saw the massacre and after that felt the colonists were savages, so the animosity was extreme on both sides. There were more atrocities by the British on their march back to Boston.
Oh dang! Wish I would've known that story ahead of time. Always learning!
Wow that's really wicked.
@@TheHistoryUnderground You can't pick up everything! I grew up a couple miles from the bridge so I know all the history. Great show!
If I’m the British, and am being snipped and shot at for miles after being on the go since 4am, I’m taking hostages and using them as shields all the way back to Boston.
The Concord Minuteman was the first public monument executed by Daniel Chester French, which he created at the ripe old age of 22, and for which he was paid the handsome sum of $1000. (fun fact: French’s father was the inventor of the French Drain, an irrigation device still in use to this day.)
Underneath the base of the statue are two time capsules, one of which dates from the Centennial in 1875 and the other from the Bicentennial in 1975.
I love to learn about our history.
I live in Vermont, and buried in the Cemetery next to my home is Mannaseh Osgood. His gravestone says he was the first settler in this area. He moved here in 1799 from Barre, Massachusetts. His Parents would have seen or heard all of these events since Barre is about 50 miles from Boston. Manasseh was born during the war so he would have heard first-hand stories of the war from his parents.
The Boston vids were the best yet! I you do more of this!
I really appreciate that! Got a run of WWII content coming after the Revolutionary War series is over.
Very interesting episode. The perceptions of the Revolutionary War militia(s) are at the centre of America’s foundational mythology and the actions of the Minutemen at Lexington and Concorde are perhaps the most recognizable event involving those militia.
Totally amazing . Extremely well documented. I like and share this video
Had a neighbor (who recently passed) who marched by foot have you 35 miles with others in 1976 for the bicentennial reenactment. What a story!
I was present, on the shore of that pond, when President Ford delivered remarks at the Old North Bridge, Concord, Massachusetts, 4/19/1975 for the Bicentennial.
Excellent JD, looking forward to the next one in this series!
Thanks! Just released it today.
Great I will check it out later, visiting my mother in law in the hospital at the moment.
I’ve been following your content from the beginning and absolutely love your channel. You pay a lot of attention to detail and that’s what has kept me coming back. Being from New England I’ve done loads of research on the revolution but have not yet visited Concord or Lexington. Been to Boston several times and walked the freedom trail several times. I’d like to share a bit of information with you though if you haven’t heard of it. It was said that the people of concord upon hearing that the regulars were coming they took most of the munitions and buried them in recently plowed fields so as not to be found but left some to be found by the regulars so that they would have something to find bc they already knew the regulars knew they were stock piling munitions
Beautiful video. We’ll be showing this in the new American schools we’re building.
👍🏻
Another outstanding video, keep sending them out
👊🏻
History Underground is an exceptional channel!
Its content is always great, always interesting, and is presented so well in its information, narration, and video quality.
I’m proud to be a subscriber!
Keep up the great work!
❤️🙏
Thanks for sharing this adventure my ancestors fought in the American Revolution they were American militia and Contiental and a Couple Hessions!! 🇺🇸🇫🇷🇳🇱🇧🇪🇬🇧
Thank you for doing these. Most people don't know about Barrett's Farm and the feisty Wife's response, excellent! Boy there's quite a story about those cannons too! I realize you're probably trying to stay within a time format, but may I pick a minor nit? The conversations that lead to the Militia being on Punkatasset Hill are incredible (and then marching down). First, a semi-comical story of the three disparate groups of militia in Concorde trying to decide what to do when they receive word (from Prescott) "The Regulars are out", next the assembly of various militia from the region on the training ground, and then the conversation after they see smoke, and LT Hosmer asks "will you let them burn the town down?!?" Major Buttrick asks: "And who shall lead us?" It is at that point that Captain Isaac Davis says "I haven't a man afraid to go." (Not bravado, but serious, steely determination). Isaac Davis is quite a character in this story, the "Minuteman" monument at the North Bridge is said to be a depiction of him, the citizen-soldier. Also, his troop of militia are some of the best trained, AND they have cartridge boxes and bayonets. His children are very sick, yet he went anyway. This is the cloth we are cut from as Americans. (Col. Barrett then reiterates, do not fire unless fired upon.) Barrett marches down to near the bridge with Isaac Davis's Acton Militia in the lead. Interestingly, behind them are the Bedford militia ("VINCE AUT MORIRE!"), with the only flag to be seen, the Bedford militia flag, the only flag we know for sure was on the field of battle that day. Sadly, Isaac Davis is the first to die, and Major Buttrick yells "Fire fellow soldiers, for God's sake; FIRE!" They do, and half the British officers and Sergeants go down on the first volley. The British troops then broke and RAN from the bridge! Quite a story!
Wonderful episode about my hometown Concord!
Hi JD. I've been waiting for this episode. I remember the phrase "the shot heard around the world" but your video was illuminating and informative. I look forward to seeing every video of the American Revolution and relearning about it again. ~~ Lynne
👍🏻🇺🇸
Thank you. If you want to keep the videos coming people you have to comment and give a thumbs up .👍
Thanks for that!
Great video. History should not be lost.
Thanks!
When in the US army 69-71 I didn't know where I would get the guts to do my job It was this
Story That I would think of to get me through the hard tlmes.
Lots of inspiration there.
Awesome video! Really enjoyed.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great content as always, JD. I was born and raised in Woburn, and I have spent countless hours exploring those spots. Thank you for coming north to tell our story.
Great video. I'd traveled through Concord a bunch of times heading to Ayer MA for work but never bothered to stop off and learn about the battlefields. Typical of a local that doesn't be a tourist in their own back yard. Your video of the Boston burial grounds was one of my favorite stops when I did live in Boston proper.
I have not visited this area yet being from Maine but now that I've seen it on your UA-cam channel I am definitely going to go!
Awesome!!!
More fascinating stuff. THANKS!!
You bet!
You should go to Moore’s creek battle field or Edenton NC. Very important places in the American revolution.
I love this video! JD, I bet you are a fun history teacher in the classroom. I hope that you still teach in schools.
Thanks! Appreciate that.
What an exciting time to be a patriot and in the militia. The tensions had been building up for several years. The main meeting places for speeches were taverns. Of course after a night of drinking emotions ran high and many rabble-rousers were ready to start an armed conflict, before the meetings had ended. The wait was suspenseful not know when the first shots would be fired, however all knew it was coming. Although the Army was in denial and completely unaware there was much of a problem. They were extremely over confident and felt they were dealing with rabble, nothing more than spoiled children who would be brought to bear under the overwhelming power of the Army. Little did they know thier enemy was highly motivated, organized and looking for a fight.
🇺🇸
The local Scout troop organizes a march from Capt Isaac Davis house every year. We have attended from VT many years. I have seen 3000 scouts and leaders follow the historic trail from Acton to to the bridge with re enactors at the head of the column. It is a great site to see in early April every year
Wow!
Love it ! Thanks for the upload.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I do hope you cover Samuel Whittemore in coverage of Battle Road. Keep up the great work!
Didn’t get to that memorial but I may need to make a UA-cam Short that covers it.
Well very good JD I enjoyed this something I didn't know and I learned a lot from you keep up the good history that we need so we don't go in the past again may God bless your family and you may Lord Watches Over You
🙏🏼
