SUMMARY:Tea\, Porcelain\, and Opium
DESCRIPTION:In the wake of the American Revolution\, North Shore merchants dispatched sailing ships to the Far East\, racing to bring back tea\, silk\, pepper\, and porcelain. By 1800\, their ventures had transformed Essex County into one of the wealthiest regions in the United States. Join Ipswich writer Doug Stewart as he explores Ipswich’s connection to the 19th-century China Trade\, including the pivotal role of Heard & Company in smuggling opium to China. Don’t miss this opportunity to uncover a fascinating chapter in local history! \nMembers: Free | Non-members: $10
