By far the best tour I’ve ever taken. The lives, the personalities, the actions, the political philosophy of great Bostonians Samuel Adams, John Hancock, Benjamin Franklin, John Otis, Joseph Warren, Paul Revere are woven masterfully onto the tapestry of the American Revolution, which comes to life step by step, suspensefully, through the engaging words of the brilliant historian who was our host. Moving from
landmark to landmark, from neighborhood to neighborhood (it’s a very long walk), interspersing historical accounts with fun facts and migration stories, Mike used props to visualize the Revolutionary Story, examining all factors at play on both sides of the Atlantic, like chess pieces that inexorably bring to the final outcome. Checkmate. I absolutely recommend this tour. My teenage children too.
