#10 Invitation to a Tea Party

Today's tour will take us first to a little tea party in Boston that could very well get a little out of hand. We'll visit the First Continental Congress and we'll talk about the shot heard round the world. We'll swing by the Second Continental Congress and see George Washington given command of the colonial army, and we'll see the effects of Thomas Payne's pamphlet called Common Sense. Finally, we'll see the vote for Independence - though it might not have taken place when you think it did! All that in less than thirty minutes! It's a whirlwind tour..come and join!
