On this week’s Dispatches, host Brady Crytzer interviews JAR contributor Jane L. Green on her research into the life of Thomas Ditson, a man who went from being tarred and feathered by the British for illicit trading to becoming one of the first Massachusetts militiamen to engage the British at Concord.
