Old South Meeting House


The Old South Meeting House is a landmark of mammoth proportion. Not only is it the primary site of the inflammatory speeches which sparked the American Revolution but it still serves as a free speech site today.

Unfortunately, they are still not providing a list of the infamous Old South pamphlets on-line but I have found the museum staff to be very helpful. If it was an important speech in Boston or Mass., chances are they have a wonderful old typeface pamphlet form of it from Frederick Douglas to James Otis to Horace Mann.

I find myself ordering something to add to my collection of documents to display to the students every year. For the re-enactor, this is the place for your period paper....
