The economic events that led the patriots to dump tea off English ships into Boston Harbor are presented with watercolors that re-create the setting and add drama. The events are confusing without elaborate explanation, and this book would work best as a complement to a history text, or for readers who have a grasp on the politics of the times. An afterword and time line are included.
