Join author Michael Gabriele as he discusses his book, Colonial Taverns of New Jersey – Libations, Liberty and Revolution. Taverns were the main stage for the unfolding drama of a colony transitioning into statehood and making decisions about declaring a war of independence. Taverns were the places where the voices of history took shape, and used as recruitment stations for colonial militias. A haven for Patriots and Loyalists alike, taverns were the “seedbeds” for the Revolution, strongholds for political activities, beacons for travelers, and venues for entertainment, merriment, and libations.
