 conflicts (1800–1840) shaped early American admiralty law post Revolutio
 n. \nLearn about the establishment of American Admiralty Law in Salem and 
 Boston following the American Revolution\, tracing how early 19th-century 
 maritime conflicts in these port cities shaped the development of American
  jurisprudence. The lecture will examine how disputes over cargo\, salvage
 \, and prize cases during the period tested and refined the young nation
 ’s legal system. Judge Young will also discuss the pivotal role played b
 y Judge John Davis in establishing practical precedents for handling these
  cases — precedents that would go on to influence the broader framework 
 of American admiralty law. \n\n\n\n\nAbout the Speaker: \nThe Honorable Wi
 lliam G. Young has served as a Judge of the United States District Court f
 or the District of Massachusetts since 1985\, following eight years on the
  Massachusetts Superior Court. A graduate of Harvard College and Harvard L
 aw School\, he served as a U.S. Army officer before beginning his legal ca
 reer as law clerk to Chief Justice Raymond S. Wilkins of the Massachusetts
  Supreme Judicial Court. He later practiced law with Bingham\, Dana & Goul

 vernor Francis W. Sargent. An acclaimed teacher of evidence and trial advo
 cacy\, Judge Young has taught at Harvard\, Boston College\, and Boston Uni
 versity. He is also a prolific legal scholar and the author of several inf
 luential works on evidence\, trial practice\, and federal jurisprudence. \

SUMMARY:To the Farthest Ports of the Rich East: Profit and Peril in the Ne

DESCRIPTION:With independence from Britain secured\, in the 1780s American
  began trading to Asia for themselves. They bought tea in China. They sail
 ed to the East India Company-administered India for cloth\, to Yemen and D
 utch Java for coffee\, to Sumatra for pepper\, and to many other ports in 
 between. The trade to Asia accelerated as the French Revolutionary and Nap
 oleonic Wars (1793-1815) kept European traders out of Asian waters\, creat
 ing a tussle between British and American crews to supply French-occupied 
 Europe with Asian goods. This process created a new class of American inve
 stor-capitalists and the first American millionaires. Yet such wealth came
  at a cost\, as the ever growing and increasingly wealthy American trading
  fleet was a tempting target for foreign states and pirates—from Britain
  and France to Barbary and Yemen—against which the U.S. Navy was not alw
 ays a match. \nJames Fichter\, is an historian of early America\, the Brit
 ish Empire\, and international trade. His book\, So Great a Proffit: How t
 he East Indies Transformed Anglo-American Capitalism (Harvard: 2010)\, exa
 mined the relationship between the American (especially Salem) and British
  trades to the East Indies in the late 1700s and early 1800s. His book\, T
 ea: Consumption\, Politics\, and Revolution\, 1773-1776 (Cornell\, 2023) c
 harted the rise and collapse of tea politics in North America. His article
 \, “The Palimpsest Captive” (Huntington Library Quarterly) reconsiders
  the 1806 loss of the Salem merchantman\, Essex\, in the Red Sea. His fort
 hcoming work includes the books\, The Real Boston Tea Party\, and Mammon: 
 The American Revolution and the Slave Trade\, as well as an article on the
  fate of the Salem merchantman\, Friendship\, attacked by “pirates” in
  1831. \nWhile admission to this event is free\, space is limited\; regist
 ration is strongly encouraged. \nCLICK HERE to register \nAfter the lectur
 e\, join James Fichter for a book signing. A limited number of copies of S
 o Great a Proffit: How the East Indies Trade Transformed Anglo-American Ca
 pitalism will be available for purchase. Since supplies are limited\, you 
 are welcome to bring a copy of any of his other books you already own to b
 e signed as well. \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n \nT
 his program is part of the Conflict & Community: Salem\, Essex County\, an
 d the American Revolution lecture series. This series is a partnership bet
 ween Essex Heritage and Salem Maritime National Historical Park and highli
 ghts the unique role of Essex County communities during the American Revol
 ution. CLICK HERE or more information about Conflict & Community programs.
