I am an archaeologist, author, and emeritus professor at Penn State. Check me out via Amazaon. I am currently working in archaeological data archiving.

May 6, 1777: Lt. General John Burgoyne landed at Quebec. His orders were to take an army of 7000 British and German troops and sever New England from the other rebellious American colonies by attacking southward from Montreal to Albany. It seemed like a good idea at the time.

[Dean Snow @DeanSnowPSU]

@tvkatesnow Of course it is.

@DeeL9876 It's about David Ingram, a marooned sailor who walked from Mexico to Canada along the East Coast in 1568-1569. He later told his story but has been dismissed by historians for centuries. An examination of the original documents has shown that he was not a liar.

The Journal of the American Revolution just put out its list of the 100 best American Revolution books of all time. I'm very pleased and grateful that 1777 made the list.

[Dean Snow @DeanSnowPSU]

@DeeL9876 I'm happy that 1777 resonated with you. Today I will be submitting my next book manuscript to my editor. We'll see what happens.

I'm back. Be of strong heart. We can all see a bright light at the end of the COVID tunnel. Saludos tambien a mis amigos Mexicanos.

Kate Snow has a major story on the conviction of Bill Cosby. Watch Dateline on NBC tomorrow (Friday, June 1), 10/9c. The era of predation with impunity is over. We are all witness to a historic tipping point.

@KenBurns It still astonishes me that the guy who introduced race-based slavery to Elizabethan England was the same guy who also introduced the sham benefits of tobacco smoking, John Hawkins.

This is an important problem. Great to see the effort. https://t.co/ppRbfqUu4Q

@KenBurns Today the kids were the adults in the room. May their energy persist for as long as gun violence threatens us all. The future is in their hands.

@tvkatesnow The problem disappears as one moves south.

It's great that my friends golf. But I don't golf. I don't mind golf on television. What I do mind is golf bumping Nightly News of the air almost every Sunday, at least in this market. One might think NBC doesn't have a dedicated sports channel.

@tombrokaw Those of us who grew up in the Midwest know that shame follows guilt just as surely as pear halves appear in lime jello.

We watch Olympians because it's all about earnest hard work, dedication, beauty, and the joy of honest achievement. I hope they all live forever.

[Dean Snow @DeanSnowPSU]

And there's Snow at the winter olympics. https://t.co/ivEM6Rr5iY

Here’s a little tour of the Olympic Park near the coast- where skating events and curling are. #WinterOlympics @NBCNews @TODAYshow @NBCNightlyNews
