  • Acton 250: The British Soldiers of April 19, 1775

    Acton Memorial Library 486 Main St., Acton, MA, United States

    Please join the Acton 250 Committee for its next speaking event featuring historian and author Don N. Hagist. Don will share lesser-known narratives from the Revolutionary Era, including the lives of British soldiers who engaged the colonials on April 19, 1775 and maintained the Siege of Boston for the following year. Don is managing editor of Journal of the American Revolution (allthingsliberty.com). His historical studies focus on presenting an accurate picture of individual soldiers and their families, especially those of the British army who served in America. This research is done using exclusively primary sources, mostly from archives in North America
