Liberty Trail StoryCorps Stories: Walter Edgar and Doug Bostick

Historian, author, and radio host Walter Edgar and Doug Bostick, executive director of the South Carolina Battleground Preservation Trust, share their favorite stories from the Revolutionary War and challenge common misconceptions about its history. Please note, this story contains graphic references to violence. 

This set of inspiring and commemorative conversations about the American Revolution and the founding of America is a part of The Liberty Trail. The recordings humanize the people of the past and honor their impact on our history 250 years later. The project includes people who care deeply about history, preservation and education to speak honestly about their experiences. It was produced by the American Battlefield Trust and South Carolina Battleground Preservation Trust, in collaboration with StoryCorps.
