Colonial Calm Before the Storm: Daily Life in New England (1763–1774)
Before the revolution, there was everyday life. In this episode, we dive into the fabric of New England society between 1763–1774—religion, work, trade, women’s roles, slavery, local governance, and the growing rift with Britain. Enlightenment ideals met town meetings, and mercantilism met frustration. How did ordinary people in ordinary towns build the foundation for independence? Let’s find out.
