Analyzing the Boston Tea Party

Using the exercises and primary source documents in this engaging book, students will learn about key moments that led to the American Revolution. These include the financial pressure on England after its resources were spread thin by the French and Indian War, the formation of the Sons of Liberty, the backlash and revolt of colonists in response to the Stamp, Sugar, and Quartering Acts, the tea party itself, and the eventual meeting of the first Continental Congress.
