After watched Drums Along the Mohawk



I've alredy watched Drums Along the Mohawk. This kind of movie, i'd rather classify this movie to be a Classical one. The movie shows the story take place in 1776. With the Honeymooners; Gil & Lana whom they go along the new place from Albany to Deer field for settling down their family.

This movies illustrates the new culture that had to evolve in order to survive. Fighting Indians, British and French became a way of life during this period. These people developed a strong bond of friendship and family. They helped one another in many ways. As the same place any where in the world. Men have to be on a Military. Women just waiting for their husband returned Home.

Invasion by the Indians Tories. Such a thing, this is the one to represent The American Revolution to New York frontier!! In the Colonial era.

A very good summary of the movie. It does give one a good idea of what life was like for the colonials in America. It was not easy. Everyone tried to help each other because they knew that individuals would die alone and people need each other in tough times.

This is the start of the new nation. After the English defeated the French, the English got all the land to the Mississippi river. Go do some research on why the American Revolution came about. Oh, sure, we Americans all say NO TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION but see if you can come up with problems with all that new land out to the Mississippi. Why was there are problem?

This is a good little research item to run down. Let us know in class what you find.

When the husband was gone, who was the boss of the house? Did the early women pioneers have to be strong to make it? Do you think they got out of bed and put makeup on? Can you think of some of the "chores" that had to be done every day, for a family to survive? Would pioneers, settle in an area where there was water, or where there was no water? How did the pioneers keep their meat from rotting? This is a good movie.
