Episode 11
We talk with J.L. Bell, who has created the extraordinary Boston 1775 blog, with history, analysis, and unabashed gossip about the American Revolution in Boston--a daily update since 2006! He tells us about how elections were run in colonial Boston, about his work at the Longfellow House Washington's Headquarters National Historic Site, and about the Boston Massacre Trials and the death of Christopher Seider. John Bell is also the author of The Road to Concord: How Four Stolen Cannon Ignited the Revolutionary War, a story we will have to have him come back to tell.
