We examine the Boston Massacre of 1770, one of the major causes of U.S. Revolutionary War. The Sons of Liberty were able to use what was dubbed the "Bloody Massacre" to increase support for the American Revolution. But was what they told people about the event actually accurate?
And what happened at the trial of the British soldiers when a young John Adams stepped in to represent them before the court?
It's all covered here; Samuel Adams, Paul Revere's (inaccurate) engraving, and much more.
