Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 In November of 1747, the people of Boston rose up against the British Navy and their impressment practices. They placed a deputy sheriff in the stocks, seized officers of the Lark as hostages, and broke the windows of the Council chamber. #2 Following in the tradition of English riots, American colonists took to the streets to demonstrate their opposition to the British taxation which followed the French and Indian War. By the end of 1765, the stamp distributors in all colonies except Georgia had resigned their posts. #3 The Stamp Act riots were a result of the British Parliament trying to stamp out American independence. They were a mix of poor laborers and seamen who were angry at the rich merchants and officials who flaunted their wealth or abused their power. #4 As the British Parliament passed the Stamp Act, many colonists objected to the abuse of power by the British Parliament. The issue was simple and straightforward: no taxation without representation.
