SUMMARY:Westford Rev 250: For the Defence and Safety of the Province: Massachusetts Prepares for War.
DESCRIPTION:In October 1774\, the Massachusetts Provincial Congress ordered the towns across the colony to prepare for war with England. In response\, the colony entered a wartime phase that included creating minute companies\, stockpiling arms\, ammunition\, and equipment\, and establishing a defense network ready to mobilize if the redcoats marched from Boston into the countryside. \nJoin Alexander Cain as he discusses the colony’s response to the British threat of war and examines the Massachusetts militia and minute-man system on the eve of Lexington and Concord. \nAlex Cain lectures on the military and social influences of 1775 Massachusett and is the author of the blog and podcast “Historical Nerdery”. \nWestford Museum 2 Boston Rd\, Westford\, MA
