The war has begun, but the Declaration of Independence is still a year away. In the hills above Boston, an untrained colonial army faces the might of the British Empire. As the smoke of muskets fills the air, the Battle of Bunker Hill will test the mettle of these ordinary citizens and decide the fate of a fledgling nation.
