SUMMARY:Cocked and Boozy - online lecture with author Brooke Barbier
DESCRIPTION:We are excited to present a lively lecture with historian\,
 author and founder of Ye Olde Tavern Tours\, Brooke Barbier\, on Thursday\,
 October 15th.\n\nEighteenth-century Americans consumed a staggering amount
 of alcohol compared to us today. Drink influenced their politics\, built
 and sustained their relationships\, and drove the economy. Booze was not a
 small part of colonial society\, nor covertly consumed in private
 spaces—it was integral to American life. When the colonists rebelled
 against the British Empire\, this culture of drink and taverns helped
 foster revolution.\n\nJoin historian Brooke Barbier to learn about the
 influence of tavern and drinking culture on the American Revolution\,
 particularly in Massachusetts. You’ll hear about the way alcohol
 influenced colonial resistance\, soldiers on both sides of the war\, and
 the creation of a new nation. You'll see famous founders and lesser-known
 Patriots drink their way from British subjects into Americans.\n\nRegister
 using the ticketing link - details will be sent a few days before the
 lecture.\n\nLearn more about our events at
