This is a pathfinder about Shays' Rebellion, a colonial insurrection that occurred in Massachusetts from 1786-1787.  The rebellion is often remembered as a footnote in American history, but the impact of the insurrection undoubtedly shaped colonial politics right before the Philadelphia Convention.  Primary sources and secondary sources have been included throughout the pathfinder in order to provide the individual with more resources for research.  Each source has been linked to a website where the content is either viewable or to a website that gives the individual an outlet to acquire the content.  This pathfinder is intended to be used as resource for finding information pertaining to Shays' Rebellion.
