About This Item
This 18th century depiction of the battle of Bunker Hill (actually, Breed's Hill) shows four British ships in the foreground, while a British battery on Copp's Hill in Boston fires rockets into Charlestown, which is seriously on fire. A wonderfully evocative view of a signature event at the very beginning of the American Revolution.
