The Spirit of a Revolution: Boston

Liberty's Cradle

By: Cam Molineux

Narrated by: Mike Sonneveldt

In the years leading up to the Revolutionary War, the American colonies are teetering on the brink of disaster. With the threat of unbridled control by the British Parliament, Boston patriots seek to overturn their motherland's tyrannical practices.

William Molineux, a rabble-rouser and little-known figure in American history, resists Britain's oppressive ways so colonists can live in the land of the free and be masters of their own destiny. The struggle for freedom in prerevolutionary Boston—by real people with hopes, dreams, and families—is eerily similar to what Americans face in the opening decades of the 21st century.

Feel the Intensity leading to The Boston Tea Party

The Spirit of a Revolution is replete with the struggles of our forefathers as they lived with the continuously crushing expectations of the Crown and its representatives in the colonies. The author smoothly builds it so that the reader becomes personally invested in the frustrations of the men oft-read about and some that are new to readers.

The main character, William Molineux, interacts with Hancock, Adams, Revere, and countless others in the days leading up to and through the Boston Tea Party. Their efforts to use diplomacy and their frustration at “taxation without representation” led to skirmishes with British leaders and their troops.

Deeply researched, well-written, and fun to read. I highly recommend this book!
