April 5, 1775: The British Gear Up For War

from 250 and Counting

Up until now, we’ve presented General Thomas Gage as rather a hard liner who was looking to subjugate the Colonies somehow. Nothing could be further from the truth. The fact is, he like being a light-hearted guy, and when he became the Royal Governor of Massachusetts, he discovered exactly what kind of mess he’d stepped into. At that point, anything he did would only make matters worse. The post April 5, 1775: The British Gear Up For War appeared first on 250 and Counting.
