Under the Liberty Tree, A Story of the Boston Massacre

by James Otis

Overview

The Liberty Tree was a famous elm tree that stood in Boston, near Boston Common, in the days before the American Revolution. The tree was a rallying point for the growing resistance to the rule of Britain over the American colonies. In the years that followed, almost every American town had its own Liberty Tree - a living symbol of popular support for individual liberty and resistance to tyranny. In some locales, a Liberty Pole rather than a tree served the same political purpose.

Under the Liberty Tree is a story about the Boston Massacre and events leading to the American Revolution.
