Founding Fathers of Virginia

Drive Thru History: American History – Season 1

We travel south and visit the elegant homes of the great Virginian Founding Fathers, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and James Madison. We’ll admire the refinement of Mount Vernon, the ingenuity of Monticello, and the hospitality of Montpelier. We will also seek to understand how these southern Founding Fathers reconciled their beliefs, while living in a culture steeped in slavery.
