The American Revolution would not have been possible without the participation of so many different people. And, there are so many of those individuals whose names we rarely or maybe never hear. Although we have all heard "taxation without representation", very few people know exactly where that thought process originated. Well, his name was James Otis. According to John Adams, James Otis was the "Father of the American Revolution". James Otis fought countless legal battles against the British, ultimately became insane, and lost his life in a bolt of lightning.
Please enjoy this episode as we dive into the name "James Otis" a bit further. Thank you for being a part of Revolutionary War Rarities. Please subscribe to this YouTube Channel and click the bell. Please also join our Facebook Group. Now, enjoy our latest episode.

There were many "little known" heroes in the American Revolution. Silas Deane was one of those. Silas Deane worked with France to secure money and weapons and other resources for the Revolution. Silas Deane recruited the Marquis De Lafayette and Baron Von Stueben, who without either of them victory would have been even more questionable. After being accused of financial improprieties while in France, his life changed dramatically. His name was destroyed, his finances were destroyed, he was considered a traitor (for some period of time), and he died without ever recovering his good name. In the end, his name was cleared, but it took many years and his name never reached many of the history books where it rightfully belonged! Enjoy this Season 1 Episode 15, "The Deane From Groton".

This episode looks into some of the medical treatments during the American Revolution, the issues they were supposed to address, the medical theory of "humorism", the evolution of medical treatment as a result of the Revolution, and ultimately the impact that these treatments had on many soldiers.
