King George has declared a new tax for the colonists to pay. This time the tax is on tea.

Today is the final meeting at Old South to decide whether the tea ships will be returned to England  or unloaded and taxed. In Colonial Voices, we visit the shoemaker, the innkeeper, the clockmaker, the midwife, the dame school mistress, the blacksmith and others. We learn about their occupations and listen to their political views. Larry Day, award winning illustrator, has provided delicious details in his vivid watercolors.
