Snug Harbor Tavern

About the Book

John Hancock and his fellow patriots of colonial Boston were mired in a struggle against tyrannical taxes, imposed by King George and enforced by Massachusetts Governor Bernard and his tories. When the common strumpets and prostitutes of the Snug Harbor Tavern become entangled in a network of spies and the Sons of Liberty, American history takes on a new dimension. When the redcoats arrive, all hell breaks loose. Join Amanda Griffith and her doxies of the Boston waterfront, as they help the patriots in the fight for American Independence.
