Boston Punished, 1773–1774
From the destruction of the tea at Boston to the eve of the Continental Association. Parliament answers Boston with a closed port and a remade charter; the colonies rally with fasts, conventions, and a general congress, and almost no one yet wants independence.

The Association Enforced, 1774–1775
From the Continental Association to the eve of Lexington. Committees enforce the boycott, volunteer companies drill, and the colonies wait for the King's answer to Congress's petition. Still almost no one wants independence.
