Papers of Francis Bernard: Governor of Colonial Massachusetts, 1760-1769, Volume 5

British Regulars marched into Boston at midday on Saturday, 1 October 1768. For weeks there had been rumours that the landing would be resisted. But by four in the afternoon the two regiments were parading on the Common without incident. This fifth volume of the Bernard Papers examines the evidence and debates as they unfolded in Boston and London.
