7.0 - The Stamp Act: The Tax that Started a Revolution

from Prime Factors - Ranking UK Prime Ministers · host Joe & Abram

With victory in the Seven Years War came the spoils, in this case inconceivable debt and the need to increase the size of the military to defend Britain's new territory. George Grenville had a fantastic idea: let's tax the colonies!  In this special mini episode (recorded at WCA-TV in Watertown, MA), we look at the hated Stamp Act and the start of the road to American independence.
