The Revolution around the Regulators
As we observe in 2021 the 250th anniversary of the War of the Regulation in North Carolina, learn how the American Revolution unfolded in North Carolina and about some of the places you can visit to "touch history where it happened" as a cascade of 250th anniversaries of our founding history roles across our collective calendar for the next two decades. Reflect on the founding of the United States--from Cumberland Gap to the Constitution--in this fourth of a series of videos from BecomingAmerica250.com. Created and produced by Randell Jones, author of "Before They Were Heroes at Kings Mountain" and "In the Footsteps of Daniel Boone" among other books about the pioneer era, the American Revolution in the South and collections of short essays on historical characters and events of North Carolina which continue to surprise people today--"From Time to Time in North Carolina." This video is 28:45. It is accessible through BecomingAmerica250.com and is not discoverable by search at TH-cam. Find Randell's books at RandellJones.com.
