Ep. 58 Notes

Ep. 58: Massachusetts Bay vs. Samuel Gorton: The Battle for Rhode Island, Pt. 2

Massachusetts Bay had been eyeing Narragansett Bay for a long time. They had been positioning themselves to absorb it. They were invited to come. Then they overreached. They scared the people that had invited them. They created a political firestorm. A legal firestorm that would be carried across the Atlantic. Although they won many battles and wrote the popular history of their day, they would not win this battle... Rhode Island would not be theirs. Join us and find out what happened!
