At a young age, he began talking and listening to people to find out what issues mattered the most. Adams proposed new ideas, first in his own newspaper, then in other newspapers throughout the colonies. When Britain began taxing the colonies, Adams encouraged boy- cotting and peaceful protests. He was an organizer of the Boston Tea Party, one of the main events leading up to the American Revolution. The British seemed intent on imprisoning Adams to keep him from speaking out, but he refused to stop. He was one of the first people to publicly declare that the colonies should be independent, and he worked tirelessly to see that they gained that independence. According to Thomas Jefferson, Samuel Adams was the Father of the Revolution.

    Introduction During the years I have been teaching Johnny Tremain, the final meeting of the “Boston Observers”—Esther Forbes’s name for the inner circle of the Sons of Liberty—has always intrigued me. While I had implemented a rather lengthy set of questions about the events of the book, put together a variety of essay questions and the usual culminating test, and even used the Walt Disney movie as a “reward,” I had never pursued a study of these Patriots. This series of lessons centers on primary sources about nine members of the Long Room Club, the actual group on which Forbes’ Boston Observers is based. Some of these men are famous and exceedingly well documented, such as John and Samuel Adams, Paul Revere, and John Hancock. Others are moderately well known, or at least have left enough writing and/or activity behind for us to learn quite a bit about them, such as Dr. Benjamin Church, Dr. Joseph Warren, Josiah Quincy, and the Rev. Dr. Samuel Cooper. Still others were too old and too private to be noted for more than their contribution during this time, such as William Cooper. Classes will first read Johnny Tremain as usual. A map of Boston in the 1770s, labeled with streets and locations where the story actually takes place should be provided to students, so they can get a sense of where things are in relation to each other and other pertinent data.1 Along with the map, a worksheet will be provided to help the students better visualize where things are.

Society SAR (NSSAR) Louisville, KY, Headquarters December 24, 2014 Submitted by James Edward Mitchell, Chairman Texas Society SAR RevWar Graves Committee On the date above, Compatriot Charlie E. Scott, Editor (newsletter) of The Kentucky Pioneer sent along my copy of Vol 10, Issue 10, (pg 15) that arrived upon my doorstep with a small color photograph of the front street entrance of the ‘Green Dragon’ Tavern at Boston taken previously by Compatriot Tom Geimeier. Charlie, Tom Higgins Past Pres., of the KYSSAR, and, I go back together, through reenacting in colonial clothing to perpetuate our shared American societal beginnings during the Revolutionary War. This story is shared for the benefit of any NSSAR Compatriot to speak publically and factually about Boston’s Seat of Revolution and an American spy cell and first patriot intelligence network on record, known as the Mechanics. This group grew out of another organization, Sons of Liberty that had successfully formed to oppose the dreaded Stamp Act. Kenneth A. Daigler’s book entitled: Spies, Patriots and Traitors published in 2014 by the Georgetown University Press at WDC, depicts the Boston branch of the ‘Sons of Liberty’ over the summer of 1765 as achieving modest success at spreading information and furthering a united political position against the British authorities while, radical more violent street leaders preferred riots, looting, physical destruction of the stamps, and assaults on British stamp agents. In Boston riots were anything but calm organized demonstrations! Daigler wrote that activists enjoyed intimidating local British officials.

  • The Green Dragon Tavern and the Boston Tea Party
    THE MYSTERY OF THE GREEN DRAGON TAVERN AND THE BOSTON TEA PARTY An artist drew a picture of the Green Dragon Tavern. Below it he wrote these words: "Where we met to Plan the Consignment of a few Shiploads of Tea, Dec 16, 1773" In the upper left hand corner of his drawing he put a square and compass. To this day no one knows for sure who planned the Boston Tea Party. The building had been purchased by the St. Andrews Lodge in 1764. There was a square and compass over the front door and a copper Dragon that had turned green through the weather. It was a community center. Downstairs was the Tavern. Upstairs was the St. Andrews Lodge and the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts (Ancients). It was the largest place for meetings in the north east end of Boston. Historians have called it "headquarters of the American Revolution." Here the Boston Committee of Correspondence was formed after a few initial meetings at Brother Joseph Warren's house a few doors away. Here the Sons of Liberty held secret sessions. They wore a jewel around their necks and were known to have a separate language for recognition. The jewel had a picture of the Liberty Tree on it. The North End Caucus formed the guard here that publicly guarded the tea ships so no tea could be unloaded. Brother Edward Proctor (St. Andrews Lodge) was known to be leader of this guard. Brother Paul Revere served with this guard. Later Brother Paul Revere served in another guard called the Selectmen who walked the streets of Boston, two by two, and observed the movements of British troops before he went off on his famous ride to Lexington.

Hess, a twenty-six-year-old engineer and member of the steering committee of the Boston Tea Party, was wearing a tricor- nered hat: not your ordinary felt-and-cardboard fake but the genuine article, wide-brimmed and raffish. In April of 2009, two months after Rick Santelli, outraged by the Obama ad- ministration’s stimulus package, called for a new tea party, Hess showed up at a Tax Day rally on the Boston Common. He was carrying a sign that read “I Can Stimulate Myself.” He was much photographed; he appeared on television, a local Fox affiliate. He was wearing his hat. He got it at Pli- moth Plantation. It was made of “distressed faux leather.” You could order it on-line.

  • Paul Revere and Dr. Joseph Warren
    Revere House Radio Episode 20 Paul Revere and Dr. Joseph Warren Welcome in to another episode of Revere House Radio, I am your host Robert Shimp. Paul Revere’s Midnight Ride fame did not occur in a vacuum, nor was it a spur of the moment act driven out of an immediate emergency. Rather, Revere’s ride was part of an intricate intelligence system put in place by the Boston Sons of Liberty, which was an outgrowth of many personal connections in the town that had been established over the previous decade plus. While Revere was certainly a central player in his town branch, and a leader amongst those in his ‘middling sort,’ Revere was not the ultimate master mind or leading figure in his hometown. Samuel Adams and John Hancock, of course, were vital on this front, but perhaps the most significant leader for the Bostonians was Dr. Joseph Warren. Warren is a very well-known figure around Boston today, but is often a somewhat missing figure from historical narratives around the Revolution at large, in part because of his death very early in the conflict. Prior to his death, however, Joseph Warren and Paul Revere became close friends and colleagues of sorts, and Warren, though six years younger, shaped Revere’s life and role in the Revolution. In addition to their strong connection, Warren’s death, early in his life, presents us with counterfactuals not just for the trajectory of America and Warren’s career, but certainly Paul Revere’s career as well. Though they ultimately developed a bond of friendship, Revere and Warren came from different segments of Boston society.

  • Paul Revere & the Boston Tea Party
    Revere House Radio Episode 9 Paul Revere and the Boston Tea Party Welcome in to another episode of Revere House Radio, I am your host Robert Shimp. In today’s episode, we will take a look at another one of our most frequently asked questions regarding Paul Revere’s connection to the key events in Boston during the American Revolution. In our last episode, we tackled Paul Revere’s connection to the Boston Massacre. While it is unlikely Revere was physically present at the Massacre, his post-facto contributions were incredibly significant to the Massacre’s legacy and to the cause of the American Revolution. Today we will discuss Revere’s role in and connections to the other major event in Boston leading to war: the Boston Tea Party. The Boston Tea Party occurred on December 16, 1773. For a brief refresher on the event, Boston’s revolutionary leaders had imposed a local boycott on British tea being distributed into its port due to the Tea Act of 1773. In effect, the Tea Act gave the East India Company a monopoly on tea sales in Boston, which would help the cash-strapped organization. With the exclusive rights, the Company’s sales would include the small, but symbolically large, tax on the purchased tea, a still standing remnant of the highly unpopular 1767 Townsend Duties. The act aimed to cut down on smuggled tea into the colonies via Boston, and force the Bostonians to effectively consent to the idea that a tax, any tax, without direct physical representation in London was permissible.

Green Dragon Tavern & Museum (GDTM), a 22,000-square- foot enhanced replica of Boston’s historic Green Dragon Tavern, brings history and multiple dine and drink options under one roof to Carlsbad, CA. GDTM features five distinct areas including: a Museum, a state-of-the-art meeting space with catering facilities, the Coffee House, the Green Dragon Tavern and the Restaurant at Green Dragon Tavern with a menu created by highly-acclaimed Chef Craig Hastings, a graduate of the prestigious Culinary Institute of America, Hyde Park. With a reverence for authenticity, the architecture and design of the complex is Colonial-era inspired and features red brick, impressive white columns, cobblestone walkways and spacious foyers. GDTM developers have plans to invest more than 30 years in the area, signing a lease until 2045 and revitalizing the former Hadley Fruit Orchards, which sat vacant on the Paseo Del Norte space for close to 10 years. With roughly 200 private parking spots available and designated areas for limos and buses, the site sits adjacent to the Flower Fields in Carlsbad and close to the Carlsbad Premium Outlets and Legoland. The educational Museum serves as the focal point of the multi-faceted campus, featuring historical documents and texts from the Colonial and Revolutionary War eras behind custom glass panels. Admission is complimentary. The awe- inspiring memorabilia is derived from a 25-year-old private collection and will be enhanced by additional documentation and collectables supplied in a partnership with the Pilgrim Hall Museum, the oldest continuously-operating museum in the United States founded in 1824.

This is: TITLE: “BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS - MARCH 3RD, 1770” MATT DAMON (V.O.)* Almost 250 years ago, on Union Street, there was a tavern called “The Green Dragon.” In it, the people of Boston would come to drink, socialize, and eventually, plan a revolution.
