Privateering and the Revolution at Sea
with Dr. Emily Murphy

Waterline Center
We learn about the land battles that began the American Revolution in Massachusetts, but less is known about the merchants and mariners who risked their livelihoods and lives to take the battle to the British on the high seas.
Join historian Dr. Emily Murphy as she explores the world of the privateersmen and navy sailors who supplied one of Essex County’s major contributions to the revolutionary war effort.
