   Look up at the golden dome John Hancock’s pasture became — democracy with a fresh coat of gold leaf.

    Outside this wooden home, a silversmith sharpened his tools and a nation’s resolve.

    Look up to where two lanterns once flashed — one if by land, two if by sea, and history by accident.

14. 14

    Copp's Hill Burying Ground

    10 min

    From this windy hill, British cannons once roared — now only seagulls and patriots whisper across the harbor.

    Touch the deck of Old Ironsides — America’s floating argument for why oak sometimes beats empire.
