“It was a battle named for a place where it didn’t happen,” Grammer says of Bunker Hill in the episode. “The first major battle of the Revolution will also stand as one of its bloodiest, and mark an unmistakable point of no return.”

In his hosting duties for “Kelsey Grammer’s Historic Battles for America,” the actor, most celebrated for his 2-decade run playing TV character Frasier Crane on “Cheers” and subsequently “Frasier,” first takes viewers back to the spring of 1775 where it all began.
“Only by sorting through two centuries of fact and fiction, can we remember the men who’ve shaped the nation we became,” Grammer said in a new teaser for the show.

As an audience guide, Grammer will reveal the strategies that led to victory or defeat in the memorable battles, the inner workings of those on the battlefield, the decisions that led to battle, and a closer look at the long-term consequences of each conflict.
“I am excited this show will provide the opportunity to share a historical look into some of the most important battles fought through American history, to remember those who fought them, and how they shaped our country,” Grammer said.
