The Boston Tea Party was a protest against taxation without representation. In 1773, colonists angry at a tax imposed by Britain boarded merchant ships at the dockside in Boston harbor. Some wore a Mohawk disguise to hide their identities. Working through the night, they broke open crates of tea and threw the lot into the water. The revolt hardened both sides and pushed the colonies closer to open war. This word puzzle gathers eleven of them.
