Synopsis

“The Historic Tea-party of Edenton, October 25th, 1774� recounts the events surrounding one of the earliest known organized acts of political defiance by women in the American colonies. Led by Penelope Barker, the women of Edenton, North Carolina, publicly pledged to boycott British tea and other goods in protest of the Tea Act. This act of solidarity with the burgeoning revolutionary movement demonstrated the political awareness and civic engagement of women during a pivotal moment in American history.

This volume details the circumstances that led to the Edenton Tea Party and the immediate reactions to it, both positive and negative. It highlights the courage and conviction of these women and their impact on the broader narrative of the American Revolution, illustrating how their actions contributed to the growing sentiment for independence. A valuable resource for those interested in women's history, colonial America, and the origins of the United States.
