"Charles Lee" - Assassin's Creed: Real History

For the fourth episode of “Assassin’s Creed: Real History” we'll analyze the history of perhaps the most forgotten Major General in the Continental Army, Charles Lee.

If you have any topic requests for a future video, in which you would like me to research the real history and compare it to the game’s representation, please leave me a comment!

-Topic Choice-
I decided to re-tackle this subject to include his brief appearance in Rogue, but primarily because I wanted to dig deeper, find more information and further analyze this interesting historical figure.

-Disclaimer-
I am an amateur historian. History is not my official field of study, but rather a passion. This series acts as my hobby and as a way to share with you the real history behind characters, groups, events and locations that are depicted in the Assassin’s Creed video game series. Although I work hard to be as detail-oriented as possible, I am clearly not without fault and therefore welcome you to let me know whether you feel I have missed anything important or have misrepresented something in my video.
