    Your videos of Williamsburg are the best way I can visit there without leaving my home. Even though i have been there more than 40 times, I learn something new from you. Thank you.

    Amazing the amount of information from over 200 years ago. Glad GW kept journals and glad they survived the passage of time. Thanks for another wonderful video.

    Your videos are so informative. My wife and I retired here to Williamsburg in 2020. I have learned so much more of the history here then I thought I knew do to your videos. I love walking down the Duke of Glouster and knowing these amazing facts that you have shared. Thank you for your hard work. Kevin

    So fascinating.
    Many people are unaware of the fact that around 1921 ,a bronze statue of GW was sent to Britain. It stands in Tralfagar Square.
    There's also a GW statue in Paris

    One of the things I love about Colonial Williamsburg is that there are no "George Washington Slept Here" signs!

    Great video. If I could go back in time Williamsburg Virginia in colonial times would be the place. Every time that I have visited I have the overwhelming feeling that I am home!

    I just found your channel and thoroughly enjoy all that I’ve seen, particularly those about Williamsburg! My first visit was about 65 years ago and have returned about 40 times. Your perception of waking through and feeling the history found matches my impressions as well. For those interested in American history, there’s few locations presenting a better picture of our early beginnings. Thanx for your excellent videos!!

    What a terrific job you did on this ! You could do these videos for the Williamsburg travel bureau , or to be shown in history classrooms.
    Have you always been fascinated with history in general, or George Washington in particular ?
    Do you read a lot of books on Washington ? I was wondering how you knew how many times he visited each place ?
    And this is a stupid question, but how far did he have to travel to come to Williamsburg from Mount Vernon ?

    • @QuestCapsule
      @QuestCapsule  3 года назад +3

      Thank you and so glad you enjoyed! Yes, i love history and research lots of articles, books and write ups on Washington to discover the history. For this one I also had some fun connecting dots and reading parts of his journals to bring the stories together. So much fascinating details out there about him. Would love to do docs for travel bureau & schools! The road was known as Washington’s Burgess Route that would take Washington from Mt Vernon to Williamsburg. I believe it was somewhere around 140 miles or so! Thanks for commenting and watching!!
