Organized by the Boston Sons of Liberty against British tax policies, the Boston Tea Party of 1773 is one of the most iconic events of American history. The dumping of all 342 chests of tea into Boston Harbor led to harsh punishment from the British government and helped galvanize colonists into action against the British. Published in the 19th century, this book collects letters, depositions, broadsheets and other documents and firsthand accounts related to the protest.
