On this episode of Our American Stories, before the Declaration of Independence was signed, Joseph Warren was already at the center of the resistance in Boston. A physician by trade, he became a political writer, an organizer, and a trusted figure among the patriots, and one of the few men who signed the Declaration with his own blood.
Historian Jeffrey McKenna, author of Saving Dr. Warren: A True Patriot, shares the story of Joseph Warren’s rise, his devotion to the patriot cause, and his death at the Battle of Bunker Hill.
