SynopsisIn January 1787, a group of farmers raided the arsenal in Springfield, Massachusetts, hoping to seize guns and ammunition to use to overthrow the state government. Known as Regulators, these men felt that the leaders of the new American republic had become tyrannical. Author Mary E. Hull examines the conditions that led the Regulators to attack their fellow citizens just a few years after they had united to win the American Revolution. Highlighting the colorful personalities of the Regulator leaders, including Daniel Shays, the man who inspired a movement, Hull shows how Shays' Rebellion not only affected the local government, but also inspired the creation of the United States Constitution.
