Boston had been under siege since Lexington and Concord. Of course the British felt that they needed to break out of it from time to time, and today was one of those attempts.
Now, this was a success for the Continental Army, but the fact is, few people realized at that time just how close they were to losing that battle, and badly. But that’s for a couple of days from now, on August 1st.
Coincidentally, August 1st is the day that this podcast begins airing on Hamilton Radio!
Tune in to HamiltonRadio.net to hear our show, and a bunch of others. We’re in good company over there.
