Taverns were the social and political centers of colonial society and the Garden State had a myriad of establishments that played prominent roles in the founding of the nation. Taverns became recruitment stations for colonial militias and provided a meeting place for local committees of safety. George Washington used them as headquarters and safe houses for his spies and local troops. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiscover the intoxicating history of the driving force in the fight for freedom, the colonial tavern in New Jersey. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is Michael C.
