heavy on drama...light on historical facts
Jim from Texas - 01 Mar 2005
I give this one two stars mostly for effort. Since I am a stickler for historical correctness, I have difficulty with an entertainment program that strays too far from the facts of subject. I do give them kudas for making an interesting drama, but if you like your history mixed with facts, try the many history programs available from the Colonial Radio Theatre. They have figured out how to do this really well.
