Revolutionary Era Walking Tour of Lower Manhattan
	Start at the Liberty Pole on The Common. Why did a pole stuck in the ground become a source of growing discord between the colonists and the British? Visit St. Paul's Chapel. The site of our nation's first Presidential inaugural service. Hear about the "Liberty Printer" buried in the graveyard and what he did to earn a place in history. Stop at Trinity Church. Visit the graves of Founding Fathers, Sons of Liberty, Military Commanders, and two Treasury Secretaries. Stand at the colonial shoreline of the East River and envision the approaching British Fleet, with so many ships that their masts were thick as a forest. (See historic tour route for more.)
