I thought I would love this as a good historical series with beautiful scenery. It starts out well with good character development led by the old man retelling his life stories. I had to stop at episode three, realizing that this series has every trope and stereotype you can think of. There's the drunk father, abusive husband, rampant misogyny, mean abusive school teacher and corrupt business owners, in this case boot makers. Really, there isn't a scene in it so far that makes you want to keep watching. Awful men in every category including the soldiers. Surely there had to be SOME good people you could have included.
