Today we celebrate with the release of our 100th episode where we do a short review of some of the things we have learned and some of the things coming.  We hope that you will watch this episode.  We thank you for your support and hope that you will enjoy the next 100 episodes from Revolutionary War Rarities, the Podcast from The Sons of the American Revolution. 

In 1775 there was one last attempt by both the Americans and the British to avoid all-out war.  The American's issued the "Olive Branch Petition".  The British issued the "Conciliatory Proposal". 

Political cartoons played a critical role during the American Revolution.  In fact, these cartoons had a higher impact than many articles and papers.  This episode was hosted by "Benjamin Franklin" and was all animated.  This music was intended to reflect the "lite" nature of cartoons.

Season 4 Episode 14 featured a very special Guest Host named Thomas Paine.  This episode celebrated the 250th anniversary of the release of "Common Sense" and featured appearances by Dr. Benjamin Rush, Richard Henry Lee, and Benjamin Franklin.
