Mary Beth Norton, the Mary Donlon Alger Professor of History emerita at Cornell, joins us to talk about her new book, 1774:  Long Year of Revolution.  We learn about the response to the destruction of the tea, about the cargo of tea that wound up on Cape Cod, and how Charleston, South Carolina had its own response to the tea--and the unfortunate end of the Peggy Stewart in Annapolis.  This was the critical year--and also the year the terms "loyalist" and "unconstitutional" entered the vocabulary--and no one knew how it would end.  Find out more! Tell us what you think!
