Resumen del Editor
The history of the Boston Tea Party is a hidden one. Why? Since it was a clandestine operation, all sorts of rumors and legends grew up around the event—many collected decades after the American Revolution had ended.
At its core, however, the night of December 16, 1773, when colonials dumped tea from British ships into Boston Harbor, was more than a fight over tea and taxes. It was a struggle over the very nature of democracy and self-governance. Where does legal authority actually come from? Who gets to decide which laws are valid? What role does nonviolent (or violent) protest play in bringing about change?
For that matter, how does one even throw a 400-pound chest of tea overboard?
These and other questions are answered in The Hidden History of the Boston Tea Party, an Audible Original by noted author and historian Adam Jortner. In six engaging lectures, he unravels the secrets of that fateful night and reveals surprising truths about everything from the role tea played in colonial America to the everyday lives of American colonists in Boston to the challenges the Boston Tea Party presents for Americans in the 21st century. This nuanced historical analysis takes you beyond broad strokes and caricatures to offer a complex perspective on a decisive moment when the American colonists stood firm on the principle that there cannot be liberty without self-government.

Hilarious, fascinating, and a roller coaster of dizzying, historical what-ifs, Napoleon's Hemorrhoids is a potpourri for serious historians and casual history buffs. In one of Phil Mason's many revelations, you'll learn that Communist jets were two minutes away from opening fire on American planes during the Cuban missile crisis, when they had to turn back as they were running out of fuel. You'll discover that before the Battle of Waterloo, Napoleon's painful hemorrhoids prevented him from mounting his horse to survey the battlefield.

The rituals and pageantry of courtship in the 19th century can seem foreign to us today. Some of us may look back and see a more romantic age, while others will see a minefield of strict rules and stuffy protocol. Either way you look at it, it was worlds away from what dating is in the 21st century. In the six lessons of A Courtly History: Romance in the 19th Century, Professor Stephanie Insley Hershinow gives you a look at the complex and ever-evolving rules of romance in 19th-century Britain. Along the way, you will see why this fascinating era keeps drawing us back to novels and Netflix.

Interacting with people at work can be one of life’s greatest joys—and greatest frustrations. Some coworkers never trust us to do our jobs, or never respond to requests for information, or waste our time with dozens of unnecessary emails. The cost: our work results and personal sanity. How can you approach workplace interactions with more empathy and less resentment? How can you become more successful when working with “annoying” or “difficult” coworkers?

Luis of interesting details
The background, the build up, the stories behind the story, the details on the actual event, and the impact it had on the rest of history made this a great listen!

Great analysis
Really enjoyed the overview of the origins and significance of the Boston Tea Party as the event celebrates its 250th anniversary. A great resource for students of the period.

Excellent presentation of how democracy was formed in our nation through the colonies.
Read with clarity and animation. Was not anti British but stated facts without an agenda. Historically correct and enlightening.

Proud of the Boston Tea Party
I love that the author is sharing important information about this event in our nation’s founding. We all need to know these stories. It does get a little preachy about things we don’t agree with now, but were the accepted norm back then. The author’s voice is extremely pleasant to listen to. Give it a listen! It’s free! Your brain will grow!

Fascinating and well told!
This was an incredible listen. I know for sure that had my K-12 history and social studies classes provided this kind of global view of events (both literally and figuratively), I would have found them to be my favorite classes.
Story has a tremendous influence! The watered down and, this, disjointed presentations we received were dull beyond articulation.
Note: there was one brilliant exception—an AP Modern European History course taught by a man who loved history and loved teaching it. Academically, it was more rigorous and exacting than any courses I encountered in either undergraduate or graduate school, but it was so compelling that the work was a joy.
Anyway, I plan to look for published papers and other works by Professor Jartner. And, here is a nugget: there were things mentioned in his lecture that made me better understand parts of the Lin Manuel Miranda’s “Hamilton.” (And yes, I know that it was not a work of strict scholarship and total biographical accuracy. It’s just that listening to this lecture series made me under stand some of the contextual and subplot components of the musical.)

Great context setting around the Boston Tea Party
The author is well+spoken and does a great job of explaining the events leading up to the Boston Tea Party and the events that it triggered. While the Tea Party itself is familiar, the background the author explores is quite revealing.

Look at history and our forefathers
An accurate comprehension of history presented from a patriotic perspective. I have engaged with individuals in contemporary times, and inquired about their thoughts on our current taxation system and government. It is thought-provoking to consider whether our forefathers would be greatly dismayed by these developments, and if so, one can only imagine the intense reaction they would have. This realization provides valuable insight into the origins of our nation and the journey towards liberty and autonomy.

Awesome!
I would absolutely listen to more lectures like this. Well researched, well balanced and well presented .
My only regret is that it stopped at the Tea Party. I would have lived for it to continue to Lexington and Comcord.

The Boston Tea Party and its significance
We seem to just assume that everyone rose up against England to declare our independence. Not so. The series of small laws and occurrences are laid out for us that ultimately were ‘defined’ by great influencers to unite the colonies in their quest for self determination. If only history was taught like this in grade school. Riveting!
