February 1775 - The Mysterious Death of British America

from Independence 250 · host Independence 250 Media

It's February 9th, 1775. American Independence is 511 days away. Back in London the new British Parliament has just passed their most definitive statement yet on the crisis in the Massachusetts Bay colony. After years of simmering resentment and escalating crisis, Parliament has removed all doubt about their view of the situation in America. Massachusetts is officially declared to be in a state of open rebellion. In this episode I play the role of detective, looking at whole is to blame for the death of peace between Britian and America. My secret goal is to use this episode as a chance to recap everything that we've looked at in the show so far, but in a way that's hopefully a little more entertaining than a straight forward review of the first 10 episodes. So, grab your pipe and join me by the fireplace, as we look at the case so far and try to determine who is guilty of the murder of peace in America.
