Artemas Ward is one of those figures the Revolution seems determined to hide behind a curtain. Everyone knows Washington arrived in Cambridge to take command of the Patriot army. Almost no one remembers the man already holding the lines, organizing the chaos, and keeping the British bottled up long enough for Washington to have something to command. That man was Artemas Ward of Shrewsbury, a careful New England general shaped by Puritan discipline, battlefield lessons, and a stubborn commitment to doing things the right way even when no one was watching. In today’s episode we dig into the true story of the first commander who stood between the Revolution and collapse. Ward never chased glory. He built the structure that saved the cause. We will explore his rise, his conflicts, his quiet victories, and the long fight his family waged to make sure history finally said his name out loud. It is time to bring him into the light.
