_THE WAR THAT MADE AMERICA _
(http://thewarthatmadeamerica.com/wma_flash.html) _WQED Multimedia_ (http://www.wqed.org/mag/twtma/index.shtml) presents a
four-part documentary that will bring to life the French and Indian War, a
fascinating yet little-understood conflict. Produced and filmed locally, the
production is an important, regional economic-development project. "_The War
That Made America_ (http://thewarthatmadeamerica.com/wma_flash.html) " will be
broadcast on Wednesdays Jan. 18 and 25, 9-11 p.m.
The four hour miniseries stars Larry Nehring as George Washington, spanning
twenty years in his life. First as the twenty-year old hothead who leads an
ambush on a French camp, to the forty-year old Commander of the Continental
Forces fighting to establish a new nation. Twenty years before the American
Revolution, France and Britain clashed to gain control of North America. But, it
was the Native Americans who held the balance of power. Witness George
Washington's inauspicious start to his military career.
