As America commemorates and celebrates its 250th Anniversary, Ted Reinstein looks back.  Way back. Even years before independence was actually achieved, events took place that would shape how the new nation would look back at its founding. Paul Revere’s ride? One of the most momentous nights in U.S. history. And, like any big night, there was a bill. And America’s first expense report. Who knew? (The first bean counters even tried to stiff Revere!.) While many New Englanders pride themselves on knowing the difference between Bunker and Breed’s Hill, few know that the bad blood over this historical inaccuracy continues—meet Jed Breed, thirteenth-generation direct descendant of the Boston farmer whose name should be in the history books, not an answer in “Trivial Pursuit.” Find out why Concord and Lexington are still doing battle—not with the British, but each other. Visit historic Copp’s Hill Burying Ground, and find the one headstone the British used for target practice—and why.
All drawn from Ted Reinstein’s nearly three decades of reporting around New England, these stories and more are crafted into a just-under-an-hour talk. If you like history, enjoy learning a story behind the story, or just want a good laugh along with your 250th—“Greetings from Bunker Hill!”
