Did Washington really start the French and Indian War?
Why should we remember a battle that took place over 260 years ago?
In this episode, we investigate the answers to those questions as we explore the Battle of the Monongahela with David Preston, author of Braddock’s Defeat: The Battle of the Monongahela and the Road to Revolution.
