This new TV show about spies for the American cause during the Revolution is pretty good watching.
Someone did serious homework for this one. It shows the pro-Brit bent of many -- particularly in NY -- and even revives the story of how Rogers Rangers, the heroes of the French and Indian War, turned mercenary and fought for the deeper-pocketed Brits. (They arrested Ethan Allen by the way.) The costumes look period accurate -- not the typical Gollywood spiffy finery as seen in "The Patriot".
Give it a try.
