Last year, to mark the 250th anniversary of the Boston Tea Party, we unveiled our official Boston.com Boston Tea Party quiz, a dozen questions about the inner workings of one of the most famous historical events ever to happen in Boston’s backyard. And judging by how you all did, it was HARD.
Well, now that you’ve had another year to brush up on your Boston Tea Party facts, let’s see how you do this time around. To mark today’s 251st anniversary of that Dec. 16, 1773 event, here’s an encore presentation of that test of historical knowledge.
Material for this quiz was gleaned from britannica.com, bostonteapartyship.com, history.com, boston-tea-party.org, billofrightsinstitute.org, mountvernon.org, nps.gov, loyalist.lib.unb.ca, and csmonitor.com.
