Another good episode. It leaves a lot to cover in the last two hours. |

I live 4 miles from the site of the Wyoming Massacre. I've run at least 4 games on that battle.
And they didn't even name it! They just said "Pennsylvania"!
I think I'm entitled to at least one "Harrumph"! |

FWIW, I heard them mention the Wyoming Valley. |

John, It appears that Ken Burns is just damn inconsiderate. But I have enjoyed it so far. (Not the inconsiderate, the series.) (Do they make a tongue-in-cheek emoji?) |

Surprised watching the turn of events for the natives.
Some seeking to ally with the revolution in exchange for statehood and then the Roger-Clark terrors, followed by the Sullivan exterminations. Wow. No wonder so many natives sided with the British. Why didn't they put any more effort into winning them over? |

One of the pre-war Intolerable Acts basically added up to the Crown forbidding the colonists from stealing Indian land beyond the Appalachians.
That's a pretty high bar. |

Wyoming Valley would make a good "American Experience" episode. |
