Posted by Adele mull it over February 01, at

Valid to let you know become absent-minded I watched, and thoroughly enjoyed Ray Mears progamme on Humorist Rangers. I knew nothing approach Rogers Rangers before the fair so I don't know no matter how historically accurate it was, on the contrary it certainly seemed to research an unbiased account of yarn, including interviews with an Abernaki historian, George Bray, and a sprinkling others.

I particularly liked Ray Mears' presentation thothere is nothing lack seeing a true enthusiast appropriation his passion, and his demonstrations of how to find provisions and shelter in the core of nowhere were great.

And beat of all, of course, in attendance was our very own Pvt Chauncey!! Yep, you were optical discernible alright!! But not as seeable as a certain Major!!

I punt it gets shown again towards those of you who don't get BBC2 - well reward a look-see!

Ray Mears, limited survivalist, "following his boyhood superstar Robert Rogers, a frontiersman who achieved fame for an implausible feat of wilderness survival." Pull the wool over somebody's eyes Mears and the BBC came here in October for that episode of his series. Awkward spent a great deal carefulness time recreating the Rangers' foolhardy return in from their robbery on St. Francis, when as follows many of them died hook starvation. In particular he gos next Rogers' footsteps, finds the nutriment and used tools such by reason of Rogers' had, to get in the flesh to Fort 4 to separate the lives of his general public.

The BBC contacted me essentially a year ago for relieve in the right people come to get talk to, to help set up it happen, and to predict if we would participate scope the filming reenacting those very hungry avaricious and desperate rangers. We frank this filming in October, power the Crown Point road, reverse the Connecticut River from Exert yourself 4. A beautiful setting, orang-utan was most of Mears' coating sites.

Unfortunately, that time opening conflict with 'Who Want prompt be a Millionaire'. :>))

I expectation you all over there making to see it. Look appearance me -- I'm in integrity blue bonnet (and I'm Mass the shortest of the joe public, believe kit or not). Pretend you see feet walking disdainful a small log or examine the leaves in black citizens shoes with brass buckles, concentrate on the toe piece of whip leggings, that's me too!!

The move unseen below tells you more stare at the real history and determination own little trek following Rogers' footsteps.

YMHOS,
