I used to run a French and Indian war reenactment group in the UK and as a result of that you tend to get an insight into the things that got people into the period, what things inspired a lifelong interest. In Britain this tv series from the 60s was influential on people of a certain age - it might not seem impressive now but back in the day this series was unbelievably enjoyable to a youngster interested in history. One of my reenactment buddies was actually on holiday in the Highlands of Scotland and happened on them filming this - something unforgettable I think you'd agree - bumping into Hurons on the warpath in Scotland.
American warfare 1690-1835 in popular culture, art, in miniature and in wargames, through Living History and in movies.
