\n\nIf you are one of the first 20 people to register\, you will receive a separate email inviting you \;to stop by the library a few days prior to the event\, to receive a sample of \;Panyang Congou Black \;tea (one of the teas that was thrown into Boston Harbor) so that you can sip on it during the lecture!

\n\n"\;In this lecture\, we discuss the discovery of tea and its impact on history as early as the 1600'\;s. We will discuss how tea impacted England\, the East India Company\, the Townshend Revenue Act\, the Boston Massacre\, the Tea Act of 1773\, and of course let'\;s not forget the Boston Tea Party. Also discussed will be the Intolerable Act\, smugglers\, and financial\, technological\, and agricultural innovation\, all brought about because of a simple cup of whole leaf tea!"\; - \;thecozyteacart.com
