Mike Guardia - America’s Road to Independence

This episode of Big Blend Radio's "Military Monday" Show features award-winning military historian and author Mike Guardia, who lays out the history of America's Road to Independence.

At the end of the French and Indian War in 1763, relations between the American colonists and the British Crown and Parliament were starting to heat up, especially due to England's Taxation Acts and the Intolerable Acts. Many of the colonists, and representatives of all 13 colonies, were ready to declare their independence and take up arms, marking the start of the American Revolutionary War.

 

Along with many other military history books, Mike is the author of the widely acclaimed biography “Hal Moore: A Soldier Once…and Always,” that chronicles the life of LTG Harold G. Moore, whose battlefield leadership was popularized by the film “We Were Soldiers,” starring Mel Gibson. His latest books are “The Combat Diaries: True Stories from the Frontlines of World War II”and “Coyote Recon: The Forgotten Wars of Colonel Jay D. Vanderpool.” More: https://mikeguardia.com/
