About

You can watch The American Revolution (2025) for free on Amazon Prime.

The American Revolution was at once a war for independence, a war of conquest, a civil war, and a world war, fought by neighbors on American farms and between global powers an ocean or more away. It impacted millions from Vermont’s Green Mountains to the swamps of South Carolina, from Indian Country to the Iberian Peninsula. In defeating the British Empire and giving birth to a new nation, the American Revolution turned the world upside-down. Thirteen colonies on the Atlantic Coast united in rebellion, won their independence, and established a republic that still endures. The American Revolution will present the story of the men and women of the Revolutionary generation, their humanity in victory and defeat, and the crisis that they lived through.

A gravelly, commanding narration breathes life into a conflict that stretched far beyond simple colonial rebellion. This sweeping chronicle connects local farm skirmishes to global maritime battles, proving the struggle was as much a civil war as a quest for independence.
