Boston 1775

Okay, the Clark Rockefeller kidnapping trial is tabloid sensationalism, and I really should be "above" following it. But when the Boston Globe's online edition showed up in my inbox the other day, I clicked the link. After reading the story, watching the video and reading the Twitter update, my eye wandered to a list of blogs that the Globe recommends. One blog was simply titled Boston 1775.

As I opened it, I immediately knew it was a blog I'd read regularly. Its creator, J.L. Bell, is a Massachusetts writer with a fascination for the American Revolution. I haven't even started exploring his links yet, but he has a whole library of links that I think will keep me busy for months! What a delight! I hope some of you will check it out. Hey...it's better than reading about Clark Rockefeller!
