The Charleston Tea Party

Written by John R. Young

Many people have heard of the Boston Tea Party, but not as many have heard of the Charleston Tea Party. This book covers the “tea party” that took place in Charleston and why it was just as impactful to the people of Charleston at that time as the Boston Tea Party, even though it may not have been as conspicuous and sensational. This book also provides some info on the history of tea in the Revolutionary era and why it was so important to the British and the colonists.
