Event Description

Outdoor Display and Photo Ops: Concord Authors' Revolutionary War Ancestors

At your own pace and time, walk through Barrow Bookstore's outdoor display and into the dramatic world of the fighting Revolutionary War ancestors of famed Concord authors such as Louisa May Alcott, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Ralph Waldo Emerson, and more. From Patriot foot soldiers running to the cause, to privateers plundering the king's ships on the sea, to ministers thundering "freedom" from the pulpit, a potential Loyalist spy, and a future president walking a miserable path over the mountains to seek aid from France, dramatic tales and photo ops await!

    Discover the Battle Road

    “The flames of sedition spread.” So wrote General Thomas Gage in September 1774 after armed colonists forced the closure of the county courts in Springfield and Great Barrington. The crisis was escalating—and revolution was drawing near. Discover the story in “The Massachusetts Court Closures: The Flames of Sedition Spread.” And when spring arrives, why not see the history for yourself? “Lexington’s Historic Landmarks: Tracing the Roots of the Revolution” highlights nine sites in Lexington that bring the opening chapters of the Revolution to life.
