SUMMARY:Newburyport's Road to Independence\, Part I: The Long\, Dark Winter of 1776
DESCRIPTION:Step into the fraught winter of early 1776 with historian Alexander Cain. As Boston freezes under siege and smallpox shadows the lines\, tensions ignite from barracks to backrooms. \nThen the spotlight shifts to Newburyport: independence is in the air\, or is it treason? \nAlex has authored numerous research articles and presentations on the American Revolution\, including the Battles of Lexington\, Concord\, and Bunker Hill\, the Siege of Boston\, Massachusetts privateers and the experiences of New England and New York loyalist refugees during the Burgoyne Campaign. In addition\, he has published two books: We Stood Our Ground: Lexington in the First Year of the American Revolution and I See Nothing but the Horrors of a Civil War: The Loyalists of McAlpin’s Corps of American Volunteers. He is also the creator of the blog and podcast Historical Nerdery. Currently\, he is in the process of writing his next book\, “For God’s Sake\, Fire!” – The Massachusetts Militia System on the Eve of the Battles of Lexington and Concord\, which is anticipated to be released in 2027. \nCLICK HERE to reserve tickets \nPlease note: for questions on tickets\, please contact the Museum of Old Newbury. Sponsored by the Massachusetts Office of Travel and Tourism.
