Sue and I are Netflix junkies, and an evening in front of the big screen watching a Netflix series is a typical night here at the suburban version of Tinfiny Ranch.\u00a0 We recently watched Turn<\/a>.\u00a0 It’s the story of Washington’s spy ring during the Revolutionary War, and folks, it was good.\u00a0 \u00a0It’s four seasons long and each season has 10 episodes.\u00a0 The first season was a bit slow, but we’d heard good things so we stuck it out and we’re glad we did.\u00a0 The action picked up dramatically in the second season and it continued nonstop thereafter.<\/p>\n

The Turn<\/a> story occurred mostly in and around New York, New Jersey, and Long Island.\u00a0 Although filmed in Virginia, the terrain looks exactly like my old stomping grounds (central Jersey, where many American Revolution events occurred).\u00a0 The battle that turned the war happened 10 miles from my home<\/a>, and every time I’m back there I take in a bit more.<\/p>\n

Turn<\/a> is based on the Alexander Rose book, Washington’s Spies<\/a>.\u00a0 I enjoyed the Netflix series so much I read the book.\u00a0 \u00a0Like the television series, Washington’s Spies<\/a> started slowly and then the action accelerated rapidly.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Trust me on this:\u00a0 You won’t go wrong with either Turn<\/a> or Washington’s Spies<\/a>.\u00a0 Jump into either and you can thank me later.<\/p>\n
