Tour Overview
Walk the streets of lower Manhattan and experience the “city at the heart of the Revolution.” Each stop provides audio narration, site information, character profiles, select video, and links to a far bigger library of text and imagery online for a “choose your own adventure” model of tourism.
Think you know the Revolution? Think again. Here you’ll learn about some of the period’s most famous characters and events — and far more which are little known — for a trip that will challenge the knowledge of even the most ardent buff!
