Revolutionary War Battle

It's May, 1775, and the British are under siege in Boston.  Twenty thousand colonials have surrounded the city.  But we do know how things worked out.

Some re-enactors were up in Newbury at the Spencer-Peirce-Little Farm today, demonstrating an imaginary battle that never happened up here on the North Shore.  The colonials were in their tents, and the tricky Red Coats surprised them.  Armed with cannon and overwhelming numbers, the regular British army out flanked and out gunned the Minutemen.

Here are some photos.
