E36: John McCurdy: Quarters: The Accomodation of the British Army and the Coming of the American Revolution

from Dispatches: The Podcast of the Journal of the American Revolution

This week our guest is author and professor John G. McCurdy. Considered a pivotal moment in the building drama of the American Revolution, the Quartering Act stands as a controversial flashpoint of imperial authority. In his new book, McCurdy argues that the act of quartering had been a regular part of American life, and still shapes America's present understanding of privacy, personal and government space.
