June and July 1776 - Independence (Series Finale)
<p dir="ltr">Its June 7th, 1776. American Independence is 27 days away. </p> <p>In front of the gathered members of the second Continental Congress in Philadelphia, Richard Henry Lee has formally brought forth a set of resolutions that originated in his home colony of Virginia a month earlier. The resolution which Lee proposed that Congress adopt read as follows: <strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">These United Colonies are, and of right ought to be free and independent States, that they are absolved from all allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain is, and ought to be, totally dissolved.</p> <p dir="ltr">After a long and winding journey, the debate and decision over the fate of American Independence has finally arrived. </p> <p dir="ltr">Welcome to the final episode of Independence 250. </p> <p dir="ltr"> </p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style= "text-decoration: underline;">Sources: </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal">Thirteen Clocks: How Race United the Colonies and Made the Declaration of Independence by Robert G Parkinson</p> <p class="MsoNormal">Our Lives, Our Fortunes, and Our Sacred Honor by Richard M Beeman</p> <p class="MsoNormal">American Revolutions: A Continental History, 1750-1804 by Alan Taylor</p> <p class="MsoNormal">Liberty Is Sweet: The Hidden History of the American Revolution by Woody Holton</p> <p class="MsoNormal">American Insurgents, American Patriots by T.H.

March 1776 - The Fate of Boston
<p dir="ltr">It's March 5th, 1776. American independence is 121 days away. </p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">As the sun rises over the Boston harbor, where British warships float and thousands of red coat soldiers continue to occupy the town, the morning light begins to reveal a sight so impossible that the British commander General William Howe is left stunned. </p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">Looking down from the hill above the harbor known as Dorchester Heights, a rise that had been all but barren when the sun set the night before, now somehow sits an entire new American fortification. Dozens of cannons and artillery pieces point down from the new fort, weapons that seemed to have materialized as if out of nowhere. </p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">On a dramatic day that so happened to also mark the 5th anniversary since the Boston Massacre, Washington's Continental Army had managed to put the capstone on an epic journey that had begun almost a full year earlier with the capture of Fort Ticonderoga. And none of it would have been possible without the genius mind of an overweight Boston book seller named Henry Knox.</p> <p> </p> <p>Our Penultimate episode of the show wraps up the 2 year long story in Boston with a tale of adventures, determination, and deciet that changes the whole direction of the Revolution. </p>

January 1776 - Challenges, Changes, and 'Common Sense'
<p dir="ltr">It's January 10th, 1776. American Independence is 176 days away. </p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">In Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the same city where the Second Continental Congress had been meeting since the previous summer, an anonymous pamphlet has begun circulating among the population of the city. </p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">To say that this not exactly short, 20,000 word essay, was an immediate sensation would be an extreme understatement. Within 3 months an estimated 120,000 copies had been sold throughout the American colonies. By the end of the year nearly half a million had been sold. Tens of thousands more had been read to crowds in public gatherings </p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">With each copy that circulated among the masses of the colonial population, an idea began to gain momentum, an idea would have been unthinkable even a year earlier - that the final solution to the war against Britain was not reconciliation but the total independence of the American colonies. </p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">The document, destined to become perhaps the single most important piece of writing of the entire revolution outside of the only actual declaration of independence itself, had a simple but evocative title - Common Sense.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p>
