Washington’s Artillery: Remaking the Regiment Between Bunker Hill & Dorchester Heights

For Evacuation Day, historian J. L. Bell presents an illustrated talk on one of George Washington’s biggest challenges during the Siege of Boston: strengthening the Continental artillery. This required finding engineers, easing out established commanders, and ultimately sending Henry Knox on a quest for heavy cannon. RSVP recommended. Held in the historic Longfellow Carriage House.
