Book Preview:
#1 In 1797, a boarding party from the British frigate the HMS Rose went searching for four Marblehead sailors who had hidden themselves in the forepeak, a small space near the main hold. When they refused to yield, the British lieutenant attempted to push them around. One of the Marbleheaders stabbed him in the neck with a harpoon, and he died soon after.
#2 John Adams, one of the Founding Fathers and one of the most prominent attorneys in the colonies, represented Corbett at his trial. The witnesses all agreed in every detail. The council, which included the governor of Massachusetts, returned a surprising verdict: Justifiable homicide.
#3 Marblehead, MA, was a major influence in the American Revolution, second only to Boston. The town’s economy was based on cod, which were fished by Marbleheaders from schooners.
#4 Marblehead, MA, was a major influence on the American Revolution, and its inhabitants were extremely progressive for their time. The town was home to a mix of people of different races and socioeconomic backgrounds.
