As If an Enemy's Country is Richard Archer's gripping narrative of those critical months between October 1, 1768 and the winter of 1770 when Boston was an occupied town. Bringing colonial Boston to life, Archer deftly moves between the governor's mansion and cobblestoned back-alleys as he traces the origins of the colonists' conflict with Britain. 410 0$aPivotal moments in American history. 607 $aBoston (Mass.)$xHistory$yColonial period, ca. 1600-1775 607 $aUnited States$xHistory$yRevolution, 1775-1783$xCauses 676 $a973.3113 700 $aArcher$b Richard$f1941-$01688215 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910811164503321 996 $aAs if an enemy's country$94062280 997 $aUNINA
