What does it take for law-abiding men to risk their lives and their families' livelihoods in favor of rising against the long arm of a powerful king and government? The odious pine tree law had pushed Ebenezer Mudgett, a forty-six-year old liquor merchant, and his friends, normally circumspect and honorable colonists, to the breaking point. On April 14, 1772, Ebenezer and a small group of resolute settlers helped to ignite the fuse that would lead to a bloody revolution, and ultimately, the independence of millions of Americans.

About the Author:

Connie Evans is a retired teacher who lives in an old farmhouse with her husband in Weare, New Hampshire, the site of the Pine Tree Riot. After retiring, she finally had time to pursue her keen interest in the town's history, which led her to learn more about the early settlers and their challenges.
