    He marched in the streets, pressured recalcitrant merchants, and propagandized in the press. He helped form the Committees of Correspondence and pen its influential “Boston Pamphlet.” He gave a rousing closing speech at the massive tea tax meeting at Old South Meeting House. Dr. Thomas Young was one of Boston’s most colorful colonial characters. Acclaimed author Ray Raphael looks at how Boston provided a political atmosphere that allowed such a raucous rebel to flourish. Free and Open to the Public. Booksigning to follow. This program is generously funded by the Lowell Institute.
