Dr. Joseph Warren: The Boston Tea Party, Bunker Hill, & the Birth of American Liberty

17 Feb 2012 17:00:00 GMT

Massachusetts Historical Society, 1154 Boylston St., Boston, MA 02215
Friday, February 17, 2012, 12 – 1pm

Summary: Featuring Samuel Forman. Joseph Warren (1741-1775) was well known in his own time up through the Early Republic for his role in the early days of the American Revolution. Few today remember Warren as the hero of the Battle of Bunker Hill or as the person who sent Paul Revere on his iconic ride. Those recounting his story have always been hampered by a paucity of primary sources. Warren's cryptic and incomplete medical account books at the MHS remain the largest trove of his writings. Sam Forman, a historian, physician, educator, and businessman, describes the novel analytic techniques he applied to the Society's Warren-related manuscript and relic holdings and how these historic items provide keys to understanding a fascinating life.
