# Event Details - **Event Name**: The Revolution Comes to the Seacoast - **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 04 May, 2026 at 07:00 pm – Mon, 04 May, 2026 at 08:30 pm (-04:00) - **Event Description**: Prof Dane Morrison tells the story of how farmers and fisherman rose to defy the British authority at Fort William & Mary.About this EventFour months before the “shot heard round the world” was fired at Lexington and Concord in April 1775, the farmers and fishermen of Seacoast New Hampshire rose up to defy British authority at Fort William and Mary. This is a part of New Hampshire history with which area residents are quite familiar. Less well known is the story of how the colonist’s resistance movement came together. Textbooks recall their recitation of grievances: taxes and tyranny; and their demands: relief from impositions on their liberty and recognition of their right to representation. But books seldom explore what these terms meant to those who protested and risked their lives and livelihoods. Prof. Morrison will explore the conditions that led the Seacoast’s communities to rebel against their king.Dane Morrison is professor emeritus of early American history at Salem State University. He has served as president of the New England Historical Association, New England Regional World History Association and Vice President of the New England American Studies Association. He holds a B.A. from Boston College and Ph.D. from Tufts University. His research has focused on contacts between early America and the world, appearing in A Praying People: Massachusetts Acculturation and the Failure of the Puritan Mission, 1600–1690 (Peter Lang, 1995); True Yankees: The South Seas and the Discovery of American Identity (Johns Hopkins University Press, 2014); Eastward of Good Hope: Early America in a Dangerous World (Johns Hopkins University Press, 2021); and the forthcoming Yankees Abroad: Critical Themes in World History (Hackett Press). He has also edited or co-edited five volumes on subjects as diverse as the history and contemporary experiences of indigenous North Americans and the 400-year history of Salem, Massachusetts. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/newmarket/the-revolution-comes-to-the-seacoast/100001987573670352 - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Newmarket - **state**: NH - **country**: United States - **location**: Newmarket Town Office - **lat**: 43.0773666 - **long**: -70.9397644 - **full address**: Newmarket Town Office, 186 Main Street, Newmarket, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: The Revolution Comes to the Seacoast - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events10/banners/8df433536bca7246aa7f9964e42c19e894d218fc6284e1ee11dce35ca74bf3ea-rimg-w412-h309-dc969590-gmir.jpg?v=1776656030 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is The Revolution Comes to the Seacoast being held? - **A:** The Revolution Comes to the Seacoast takes place on Mon, 04 May, 2026 at 07:00 pm to Mon, 04 May, 2026 at 08:30 pm at Newmarket Town Office, 186 Main Street, Newmarket, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing The Revolution Comes to the Seacoast? - **A:** The Revolution Comes to the Seacoast is organized by New Market Historical Society. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "The Revolution Comes to the Seacoast", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events10/banners/8df433536bca7246aa7f9964e42c19e894d218fc6284e1ee11dce35ca74bf3ea-rimg-w412-h309-dc969590-gmir.jpg?v=1776656030", "startDate": "2026-05-04T19:00:00-04:00", "endDate": "2026-05-04T20:30:00-04:00", "url": "https://allevents.in/newmarket/the-revolution-comes-to-the-seacoast/100001987573670352", "eventStatus": "https://schema.org/EventScheduled", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "Newmarket Town Office", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "186 Main Street", "postalCode": "03857", "addressLocality": "Newmarket", "addressRegion": "NH", "addressCountry": "US" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "43.0773666", "longitude": "-70.9397644" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "Prof Dane Morrison tells the story of how farmers and fisherman rose to defy the British authority at Fort William & Mary.", "offers": [ { "@type": "AggregateOffer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-20", "availabilityEnds": "2026-05-04T20:30:00-04:00", "validFrom": "2026-04-20", "lowPrice": "0.00", "highPrice": "0.00", "price": "0.00", "url": "https://allevents.in/newmarket/the-revolution-comes-to-the-seacoast/100001987573670352" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-20", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-04-20", "url": "https://allevents.in/newmarket/the-revolution-comes-to-the-seacoast/100001987573670352", "price": 0, "name": "General Admission" } ], "organizer": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "New Market Historical Society", "url": "https://allevents.in/org/new-market-historical-society/27181206", "description": "Welcome to the New Market Historical SocietyCelebrating our 60th Yearhttps://nhnmhs.com/Our goal is to tell Newmarket’s story, preserve its local artifacts, and sponsor historical events and educational opportunities.
