The Conflict Ignites: The Battle of Lexington & Concord

The Conflict Ignites: The Battle of Lexington and Concord. The American poet Ralph Waldo Emerson called it “The Shot heard round the World” when a British raiding party went into the Massachusetts interior to seize stockpiled guns and met resistance before dawn on April 19,1775, in Lexington, Massachusetts. The colonial militia responded and the American Revolution had begun. Join Historian Michael Jesberger for his unique perspective on this historic event. Donations are appreciated.
