The William L. Clements Library is pleased to announce a forthcoming exhibition in recognition of the 250th Anniversary of the military hostilities that began the American Revolutionary War. The Battles of Lexington and Concord are firmly established in American memory as the culmination of a range of governmental, political, economic, and social tensions that amplified in the decade leading up to 1775. In this exhibit, visitors will have the opportunity to see original historical manuscript letters, documents, newspapers, and artwork that reveal aspects of the bloody work of Empire and individual alike in April 1775.
Among the items on display will be Commander in Chief of the British Army, General Thomas Gage's draft orders for the Concord Expedition, April 18, 1775; a bundle of letters collected by former Sons of Liberty supporter Dr. Benjamin Church, which he secretly turned over to British Army intelligence; letters by Silas Deane, John Hancock, and Rachel Revere; and much more.
Open weekdays from 12-4 pm.
