About the Book
"On December 16, 1773, a group of American colonists in Boston, Massachusetts, took part in a brave act of protest. Angry about laws Great Britain had passed, they snuck onto ships carrying tea and dumped it overboard. The event later became known as the Boston Tea Party. Soon myths about what happened emerged. Did an increase in tea taxes lead up to the event? Did the colonists dump full tea crates into the sea? Now it's up to you to separate the truths from the myths. Will you be able to guess them, or will you be fooled?"--Book Synopsis
