The smugglers of Dutch tea were the true men involved in the Boston Tea Party. The British had lowered taxes on tea and removed taxes on other things, but in doing so this made the cost of Dutch tea higher than British. Hamilton who was one of the largest smugglers in the colonies had men board 3 ships and threw tea into the harbor. This was an economic action and less about revolution. If you wish more information on this I refer you to the book " I Love Paul Revere, Whether he Rode or Not" by Richard Shenkman. Mr. Shenkman was educated at Vassar and Harvard and worked as a researcher on the Andrew Jackson Papers Project.
