The Impact of the Stamp Act in America: A Personal Account from 1766

This document-based question explores the Stamp Act of 1765 and its implications in America. It asks questions regarding the author of a particular document and their profession, the state of America in 1766, and the personal impact of the Stamp Act on the author. Additionally, it prompts an evaluation of the credibility of the account, encouraging discussion on the collective reaction of the colonists. Were they uniformly upset about the Stamp Act, or were a select few leaders stirring discontent among the masses? Evidence is required to support each argument.
