Example • TS: The attitude of the colonists toward British policies changed from political to emotional by the outbreak of the war in 1775. • Docs: A, C, D, E, G, H • Citation: It was one thing to philosophically protest the power of Parliament to tax the colonists directly or indirectly (Docs G & E), but when there was a loss of life (Doc A), the protests became more emotional. This emotion was evident in the circular letters that dealt with “no taxation without representation” (Doc C) and the reaction to the Boston Port Bill (Doc H).
