Review & FAQ:

Boston’s single colonial-era printing operation opened in 2011 and sits alongside the Freedom Trail. With the opening of the colonial print shop, visitors have the chance to engage with historians working their trade in the pre-revolutionary city.

Their forefathers were there when citizen anger over British policies broke out.

This setting enables a certain level of understanding of how this era in printing spurred communities and ignited a revolution, as historians tend to agree that Boston’s Patriot press played a key role in America’s rebellious rise towards independence.
