I am disturbed, especially given this article's "featured" status, to find my book Declaration (Simon & Schuster, 2010) listed as reference, whereas the section on Samuel Adams's activities during the Second Continental Congress both denies and ignores the critical behind-the-scenes the biographies to at least consider well-regarded work on the subject by such scholars as David Hawke and Garry Wills. Pauline Maier is cited by the article -- but see her comments in American Scripture on Adams's role in 1776. William Hogeland ( talk) 14:52, 21 October 2011 (UTC)
Under the section "Struggle with Great Britain" this article asserts erroneously that the Sugar Act of 1764 was the first direct tax by the british parliment on the colonies in America. Simply clicking the link for "Sugar act" reveals the much older Molasses Act of 1733. I have no experience editing, can someone correct this by removing the words "for the first time"? Thank you. — Preceding

I just wanted to make a link out of "Independent Chronicle" at the bottom, since there is indeed a Wikipedia article for this newspaper. Can someone do this for me?

Please remove the quotation attributed to being spoken by Samuel Adams on 1 August 1776. If one actually consults the source being used to substantiate the quotation, the title page of the appendix that contains the speech directs the reader to Volume II, which on page 440 contains an extensive note that quite thoroughly debunks that it is from Adams.
