Boy, Was I Wrong?

I fell into the trap that most people do. I figured Ken Burn's The War was border line history it was not an official history source. I thought without the talking head historian it could not be a history program. I never considered the script could be history. It was written by Geoffrey C. Ward. He won National Book Critics Circle Award and the Francis Parkman Prize of the Society of American Historians both for his biography of Franklin D. Roosevelt. He is an historian. Now while we still need to take the series with a grain of salt due to a lack of sourcing it is still a party of the history spectrum.
