Last week, I happened upon a television series on
the INSP channel. The name of the show
is Courage, New Hampshire. Granted it
lasted only four days. Hopefully, they’ll
continue to produce more episodes. Here
is a brief description.
In
1770 America, family-man, tavern-keeper and local Justice of the Peace, Silas
Rhodes strives to balance home, business and politics. Together with British
deserter Bob Wheedle, they do their best to fight back against the growing
tyranny of the British King. The two men lead a band of ordinary men who
are secretive soldiers known as the “Sons of Liberty.” With brave acts of
midnight justice against local British officials, they battle the bondage of
the King’s oppressive laws in the pre-revolutionary township of Courage, New
Hampshire.
This
powerful drama depicts daily life for families, tradesmen and British officials
living in this early American township during the turmoil just before the
Revolutionary War. The people, politics and intrigue of the time are presented
with historical detail, bringing this significant period in America to vibrant
life once more.
