The Boston Tea Party is one of the most famous events in American history, but how did it happen? And what were the consequences? In this episode, I’ll take you back in time to discuss the historical context of the Boston Tea Party, the events leading up to it, and the long-term consequences of this dramatic act of protest.

It is the best book I have found on the topic. Also thanks to Wikipedia and Google Gemini for filling in additional details for the story. Thanks to our monthly supporters Dan
