Atun-Shei Films | The Birth of an American Town ~ Episode 1 @AtunSheiFilms | Uploaded August 2023 | Updated October 2024, 1 week ago.
The first installment of a three-part documentary series telling the story of the formation of the town of Sudbury, Massachusetts in the 17th century. In this episode, we meet both the indigenous inhabitants of the Musketaquid valley and the Puritan immigrants of the English ship Confidence – two very different peoples on a fateful collision course.
Very special thanks to Pete from @HistoryTime for his guest narration and Callum from @Embracehistoria for his cartography.
